I'm starting using Birt. I read a lot of dumentation, but I've some doubts.
I want to do a web application and integrate birt.


I saw that Birt parameter window haven't the typical calendar icons for date fields, ( after click the icon a calendar is shown, then user can select a date etc...)

1. Can Birt do this? How?

2. If Birt parameters window can't do it, it's possible create my own window to add this funcionality without modifying Birt source code? How?

2. Languages have diferent date formats, then I need to do validation depending the language format. Can Birt do this? How?


Can someone clear my doubts?

By default the BIRT parameter screen does not present date date pickers.
Others have commented on how you can add one here:

http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/forum/index.php/topic/11498-birt-datepicker-plzzzzzzzzzzz/

You also customize the entire parameter entry screen by modifying js
files in the web content directory of the viewer or using the birt tag
libraries:
http://birtworld.blogspot.com/2007/09/22-birt-tag-library-building-custom.html

You could fire client side script to do your validation like

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/birt.tld" prefix="birt" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<script>
function runReport(form){
alert(form.innerHTML);
form.submit();
}
</script>

<birt:parameterPage id="birtParmPage" reportDesign="TopNPercent.rptdesign"
name="my form"
pattern="frameset"
height="600"
width="800"
format="html"
title="My Viewer Tag"
isCustom="true"
showTitle="true"
showToolBar="true"
showNavigationBar="true"
>
TOP COUNT PARAMETER
<input type="Text" name="Top Count">
<br><br>
TOP PERCENT PARAMETER
<input type="Text" name="Top Percentage">
<br><br>
<input type="BUTTON" value="Run Report" OnClick="runReport(this.form)">
</birt:parameterPage>
</body>
</html>
