Hello

It is a bug with web dynpro client framework. I had the same issue and I was on 6.4 sp12. try updating the web dynpro runtime environment( You should be able to find in notes on how to update the WD env). There is nothing I could try to get rid off, try this in a test project it happens there also.

Thanks,

Hello

No there should not be any problem if both the date and dropdown or in a table. Regarding the OSS note I dont have with me. I am pretty sure try searching service place on updating the web dynpro runtime.

Thanks

Hi Nandini,

we are not able to understand ur question.

I think there is no connection between ur dropdown and date field. If they are independent then what is the reason that u use the dropdown and then want to select the datefield to display the calender.

If the is any code behind please let me know that.

Hi Nandini,

If u want to open a calendar to select the date field then to be simple, create an input field and bind it with the contextatt. with the type date.

If u want to know more specific tell ur scenario clearly.

Hope this helps u better,

hi,

I have already done the context binding.

actually the problem is ....

We have some CHAR dropdown fields, the issue comes when we select a value from a CHAR dropdown, the date calendar is not showing up for the date fields.

[Former Member]

Hi,

The context that u declared is of the type Date right????

Do u have any connection with the drop down and ur date fields?

actually there is a node in the context where the values for the dropdown and the value for the date is fetched.

hi Rathna,

i have checked that the date field is InputField itself.

Actual problem is ,when i select a value from the dropdown and then try to select a date from the date field,the calendar is not appearing.calendar is not opening.this happens only when i select the dropdown.Before selecting any of the dropdown if i try to select a date from the date field,then the calendar opens.
