+# DateField
+
+## Introduction
+
+This `FormField` subclass lets you display an editable date, either in 
+a single text input field, or in three separate fields for day, month and year. 
+It also provides a calendar datepicker.
+
+## Adding a DateField 
+
+The following example will add a simple DateField to your Page, allowing you to 
+enter a date manually. 
+
+	:::php
+	class Page extends SiteTree {
+		static $db = array(
+			'MyDate' => 'Date',
+		);
+	
+		public function getCMSFields() {
+			$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
+			
+			$fields->addFieldToTab(
+				'Root.Main',
+				$myDate = new DateField('MyDate', 'Enter a date')
+			);
+			
+			return $fields;
+		} 
+	}	
+
+## Custom Dateformat
+
+You can define a custom dateformat for your Datefield based on [Zend_Date constants](http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.date.constants.html).
+
+	:::php
+	// will display a date in the following format: 31-06-2012
+	DateField::create('MyDate')->setConfig('dateformat', 'dd-MM-yyyy'); 
+ 
+
+## Min and Max Dates
+
+Set the minimum and maximum allowed datevalues using the `min` and `max` 
+configuration settings (in ISO format or strtotime() compatible). Example: 
+
+	:::php
+	DateField::create('MyDate')
+		->setConfig('min', '-7 days')
+		->setConfig('max', '2012-12-31')
+		
+## Separate Day/Month/Year Fields
+
+The following setting will display your DateField as `three input fields` for 
+day, month and year separately. Any custom dateformat settings will be ignored. 
+HTML5 placeholders 'day', 'month' and 'year' are enabled by default. 
+
+	:::php
+	DateField::create('MyDate')
+		->setConfig('dmyfields', true);
+		->setConfig('dmyseparator', '/') // set the separator
+		->setConfig('dmyplaceholders', 'true'); // enable HTML 5 Placeholders
+
+## Calendar Field
+ 
+The following setting will add a Calendar to a single DateField, using the 
+`jQuery UI DatePicker widget`
+
+	:::php
+	DateField::create('MyDate')->setConfig('showcalendar', true);
+
+
+### 'Safe' Dateformats to Use with the Calendar
+
+The jQuery DatePicker doesn't support every constant available for Zend_Date. 
+If you choose to use the calendar, the following constants should at least be safe:
+
+Constant | xxxxx
+-------- | -----
+d        | numeric day of the month (without leading zero)
+dd       | numeric day of the month (with leading zero)
+EEE      | dayname, abbreviated
+EEEE     | dayname
+M        | numeric month of the year (without leading zero)
+MM       | numeric month of the year (with leading zero)
+MMM	     | monthname, abbreviated	
+MMMM     | monthname
+y        | year (4 digits)
+yy       | year (2 digits)
+yyyy     | year (4 digits)
+
+### Calendar localization issues
+
+Unfortunately the day- and monthname values in Zend Date do not always match 
+those in the existing jQuery UI locale files, so constants like `EEE` or `MMM`, 
+for day and monthnames could break validation. To fix this we had to slightly 
+alter the jQuery locale files, situated in 
+*/framework/thirdparty/jquery-ui/datepicker/i18n/*, to match Zend_Date. 
+
+At this moment not all locale files may be present. If a locale file is 
+missing, the DatePicker calendar will fallback to 'yyyy-MM-dd' whenever day- 
+and/or monthnames are used. After saving, the correct format will be displayed.  
+
+## Contributing jQuery Locale Files
+
+If you find the jQuery locale file for your chosen locale is missing, the 
+following section will explain how to create one. If you wish to contribute 
+your file to the SilverStripe core, please check out the guide on
+['contributing code'](http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/trunk/misc/contributing/code).
+
+### 1. Get the Sourcefile
+
+You can find a list of locale files for the jQuery UI DatePicker 
+[in the jQuery source code](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/tree/master/ui/i18n).
+
+### 2. Find your Zend Locale File
+
+The Zend locale files are located in */framework/thirdparty/Zend/Locale/Data/*. 
+Find the one that has the information for your locale. 
+
+### 3. Find the Date Values
+
+You're looking for the `Gregorian` date values for monthnames and daynames in 
+the Zend locale file. Edit the DatePicker locale File so your *full day- and 
+monthnames* and *short monthnames* match. For your *short daynames*, use the 
+first three characters of the full name. Note that Zend dates are `case 
+sensitive`!
+
+### 4. Filename
+
+Use the original jQuery UI filename 'jquery.ui.datepicker-xx.js', where xx 
+stands for the locale.

+jQuery UI DatePicker localization files for SilverStripe 3.0
+------------------------------------------------------------
+These files are adaptations of the official localization files that can be found here:
+http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ui/i18n/
+
+Day- and monthnames have been changed to match the values Zend Date uses, to make 
+the following dateformats validate:
+
+EEE:  weekday short
+EEEE: weekday
+MMM:  monthname short
+MMMM: monthname
+
+For locales for which no file exists (yet), the DatePicker will revert to a numeric 
+format, that will validate, and after being saved will be displayed in the 
+required format.
+
+To create your own language fiel, download the original file from the URL above, 
+find the Zend Date locale file in framework/Zend/Locale/Data and make sure that
+
+- monthNames, monthNamesShort and dayNames are equivalent to Zend (Gregorian) names 
+- dayNamesShort should be the first 3 characters of dayNames
