Calendars are an important part of our lives. In today’s world, people mostly use the web or mobile calendars. They can be found everywhere, including various software: booking apps, travel software, project management, admin panels, etc. Users may need calendars on websites for several reasons. The user may need to pick a date from the calendar to fill up a form or provide a date while delivering any information. Undoubtedly, this component can be called critical for business applications. Just imagine how much your business can suffer due to a badly tuned and developed calendar. Thus, this component should be given special attention and meticulousness in development. In this article, we will look at criteria for a good calendar in web applications. Also, we will show you the best libraries in different frameworks for building your own solutions based on them. Qualities of a good calendar for web apps We have picked the criteria for a good calendar from our previous article on date-pickers. Obviously, we can adapt these to calendar plugins. We divided our evaluation criteria into 4 blocks. Documentation. It is vital for whatever you’re using to be well-documented in order to learn how to build or reconstruct it. The product with no or lacking documentation does not have a right to exist. Customization. A great library should come with options that can be updated to add or remove certain functionality. This especially applies to open-source software. Compatibility. Who wants to visit a site with a datepicker that only works in recent versions of Chrome and Webkit browsers? Many business apps still work in legacy browsers. User Experience. Ask yourself whether the plugin will be convenient for the needs of your user? Does it fit your product style? The looks and quality of the docs are not that important compared to how the library will actually deal with your task. Top calendar libraries We have included various calendar libraries based on React, Angular, Vue, Bootstrap or jQuery. Some of them are more developed, some are easier to customize. Hope this catalog will help you in your work. Fullcalendar.io GitHub stars: 9400 Price and License: MIT Website/Demo: https://fullcalendar.io/ Github: https://github.com/fullcalendar/fullcalendar Type of installation: NPM, Yarn Frameworks: React, Vue, Angular This is a good choice for those who know what they want. There are no detailed step-by-step guides that describe what to do to get the goal. Only a brief Getting Started Guide and Documentation Page. Lightweight. The library is easily customizable and has many different components. The website, demos, and documentation give the impression of a mature product, which you’re not scared to use. With this, you can plan resources and mark events. Timeline view and various themes are also there. A good asset of this library is the documentation for developing in React, Vue, and Angular. Tui calendar GitHub stars: 7328 Price and License: MIT Website/Demo: http://ui.toast.com/tui-calendar Github: https://github.com/nhn/tui.calendar Type of installation: Via package managers or CDN Frameworks: React, Vue, Angular wrappers Tui is a part of a TUI library. It is built on top or jquery with options of using React, Angular and Vue wrappers. The calendar supports various view types: daily, weekly, monthly(6 weeks, 2 weeks, 3 weeks) and efficient management of milestone and task schedules. You can change the first day of the week, customize the date and schedule information UI(including a header and a footer of grid cell). The product has full documentation and can be installed via package managers of Content Delivery Network. CLNDR GitHub stars: 2760 Price and License: MIT Website/Demo: http://kylestetz.github.io/CLNDR/ Github: https://github.com/kylestetz/CLNDR Type of installation: Via package managers or CDN Frameworks: React, Vue, Angular wrappers CLNDR.js is a jQuery calendar plugin that, unlike most calendar plugins, doesn’t generate markup. Instead, you provide an Underscore.js HTML template, and in return, CLNDR gives you a wealth of data to use within it. HTML templates are well-suited to this task because they allow us the flexibility to specify where we want the data to go in our markup. CLNDR takes your template and injects some data into it. The data contains everything you need to create a calendar. Kendo UI Scheduler GitHub stars: 2160 Price and License: Apache License, $899 – $2199 Website/Demo: https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/scheduler/index Github: – Type of installation: package managers Frameworks: React, Angular, Vue, jQuery Kendo UI is a big and advanced JavaScript framework. It contains tons of widgets and tools. Maybe it’s not a good idea to use its Scheduler Widget if you’re not interested in other components. The Kendo UI documentation is well written, and you can check out a bunch of Scheduler demos supplemented with code examples. Regarding the coding, it won’t take much time to build a basic scheduler and add some features to it. The default view is a little bit plain, but it’s easy to change that. React big calendar GitHub stars: 3254 Price and License: MIT Website/Demo: http://intljusticemission.github.io/react-big-calendar/examples/index.html Github: https://github.com/intljusticemission/react-big-calendar Type of installation: package managers Frameworks: React React big calendar is an event calendar component built for React. It is made for modern browsers (read: IE10+) and uses flexbox over the classic tables-ception approach. React big calendar includes two options for handling the date formatting and culture localization, depending on your preference of DateTime libraries. You can use either the Moment.js or Globalize.js localizers. Out of the box, you can include the compiled CSS files and be up and running. But, sometimes, you may want to style Big Calendar to match your application styling. For this reason, SASS files are included with Big Calendar. SASS implementation provides a file containing color and sizing variables that you can update to fit your application. Mobiscroll responsive calendar GitHub stars: – Price and License: free, $95, $595 Website/Demo: https://mobiscroll.com/responsive-calendar Github: – Type of installation: copy and paste script Frameworks: Angular, Ionic, React, jQuery, plain JS Mobiscroll calendar is a multiframework responsive calendar, which can work in mobile, web and tablet devices.

Angular calendar GitHub stars: 1662 Price and License: MIT Website/Demo: https://mattlewis92.github.io/angular-calendar/#/kitchen-sink Github: https://github.com/mattlewis92/angular-calendar Type of installation: package manager Frameworks: Angular The product is a calendar component for Angular 6.0+ that can display events on a month, week or day view.

Dhtmlx calendar GitHub stars: – Price and License: from $599 Website/Demo: https://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxCalendar/ Github: – Type of installation: package manager Frameworks: Vue, Angular, React This is quite a good choice if a calendar is all you want. There is an example of integration with Google maps, so you can extend the basic functionality if needed. The documentation page contains a set of guides that may be useful for beginners. The bunch of containers needed to make this scheduler work may confuse you from the start, but the overall coding process is quite obvious. The product has the following features: Cross-browser compatibility IE11+ support Full control with JavaScript API Ability to set inactive dates Configurable first day of the week Built-in multilingual support 12-hour and 24-hour time format 3 views: calendar, month, year This is quite a good choice if you want to build an enterprise product. The company has good support and flexibility in prices. Recap and conclusion We had a look at both basic and more advanced calendars. If you want a simple solution without support, but still easily customizable, then choose one of the free options. Considering more complex products, we presented paid solutions with good support quality. About Flatlogic At Flatlogic we develop admin dashboard templates and React Native templates.

Select menus are a common choice for date pickers since they’re easy to set up. But after decades of MM/DD/YY menus, I think our users deserve better.

It’s pretty simple to add a date picker to your form, and most date picker plugins are totally free. Once you learn the basic setup process, you’ll never go back, so it’s really just a matter of finding a good one. I’ve scoured the web in search of the best plugins and organized them all in this post.

You’ll find vanilla JS plugins, jQuery plugins, and even extensions for frameworks like Bootstrap. No matter what you need there’s bound to be a plugin here for you.

1. Flatpickr

The lightweight Flatpickr plugin is easy to use and even easier to setup. It’s designed with simplicity in mind so the default UI should blend into any layout.

If you take a peek at the examples page you’ll notice this datepicker isn’t very complex. But that’s often what users want: a simple interface to input data and move on.

With Flatpickr you can customize the initial date, month, and year along with restrictions on which date(s) can be picked. Plus you can add an optional time parameter using the 12H or 24H clock.

No doubt this is one of the better date picker plugins just for its design, UX, and features.

2. Pickadate.js

Another choice I really like is the Pickadate.js plugin. This is designed to be mobile-friendly and fully responsive so it’s a great solution for all devices.

Pickadate runs on jQuery, so you do need that library as a dependency. However, this file is pretty lightweight, and it doesn’t take much to get it working so even with jQuery you shouldn’t notice any page lags.

This offers both a date and a time selection menu, so it’s a fully-featured option no matter what data you’re collecting.

3. Date Range Picker

Input range pickers are extremely common with scheduling programs and visual data applications. For example Google Analytics uses their own date range picker for visitor data over a specific website.

To recreate this effect try the Date Range Picker. It’s designed to fit into Bootstrap’s CSS stylesheet but can also be used solo.

Plus it supports multi-month pickers, single month pickers, and pre-defined values for common date ranges(past week, past month, etc).

By far the most well-designed JS range selection plugin I’ve ever seen.

4. Datepair.js

To use something a little simpler for range selection try Datepair.js.

This relies on dual input fields for selecting the starting date & ending date of a range. It can also include time ranges too based on your settings and how you configure the plugin.

Is this better than a single date picker UI? That’s up to you(or your client) to decide.

But this is a simple plugin to setup and your visitors may prefer the single field inputs.

5. DateTimePicker

Here’s one of the more unique plugins out there with quite an abnormal interface.

The DateTimePicker plugin has its own responsive dropdown menu that lets the user select their date/time using plus & minus icons.

On the one hand, this is easier to jump around and quickly change the month/year with a few taps. But it’s also not the typical calendar UI so it may take some adjusting from users who aren’t familiar with this interface.

There’s pros & cons to everything, so I say take a peek at the plugin and see what you think. This does support separate date & time inputs, but you can also combine them together making datetime selection just one click away.

6. glDatePicker

For a detailed design and tons of optional features check out the glDatePicker plugin. It’s fairly lightweight considering how much you get and it measures about 7KB when minified.

This runs on top of jQuery, so you have to consider that as well. But it’s one of the few plugins that offers gorgeous theming for calendar date selection screens.

It has a few pre-designed templates, but it also comes with CSS properties that you can restyle yourself. Not to mention all the JS functions have callbacks so if you’re comfortable with coding you can add your own features into the mix.

7. Wickedpicker

While this isn’t technically a datepicker it is one of the better time pickers out there.

Wickedpicker is a jQuery-powered time selection plugin that works on any input field. It supports user input for hours/minutes and the AM/PM setting. You can also run it on a 24h clock with a simple JS option.

Some datepicker plugins have time selection, but it comes as an extra feature. This plugin is designed solely for time inputs, so it’s a nice choice if that’s all you need.

8. Bootstrap Datepicker

Anyone who’s familiar with Bootstrap knows just how useful it is for new projects. If you’re frequently designing sites on Bootstrap then you should keep this Bootstrap Datepicker saved.

It’s one of the few plugins made specifically for BS3 layouts, and it should be compatible with the upcoming Bootstrap 4 release too.

The design includes a section for changing the month & year along with a time selector for altering minutes/hours in your date picker. It blends perfectly into the BS GUI so it’s no doubt a staple for anyone using Bootstrap.

9. Foundation Datepicker

Another popular frontend framework is Foundation and if you’re more into that library you should check out this Foundation datepicker also 100% free.

It also comes with a time picker and options to include the time inside the date selection screen. You can even define dates based on fixed settings(i.e. only certain dates available) and limit those dates to certain times.

You can even restyle the time input with fixed choices like 15-minute intervals.

There’s a lot you can do with this plugin, so it’s a great addition to any Foundation website.

10. FoxRunSoftware DatePicker

This is one of the top plugins on GitHub for jQuery datepickers. It’s simply titled “DatePicker” but to distinguish it from the rest it’s the plugin designed by FoxRunSoftware.

It comes with a clean interface, and by default, it uses a 3-month GUI window for date selection. This feels just like the Google Analytics picker except it’s a bit smaller.

The callbacks are pretty simple to code, and you have a lot of control over how to manage the UX. Certainly a datepicker worth saving if you want to replicate the Analytics GUI.

11. jQ Datepicker

Here’s one more datepicker plugin with the simple title of Datepicker. Again it runs on jQuery but this one’s designed by a Chinese developer Fengyuan Chen.

This Datepicker plugin is phenomenal and it has a ton of documentation for newer JS developers.

The main demo page is great for toying around but check out the GitHub repo if you want to get this plugin setup & running on your website.

And if you’re ever looking for more datepicker plugins try searching GitHub. Web developers release new plugins all the time so you never know what you’ll find.

The post 10 Free Open Source Date Picker Plugins appeared first on Speckyboy Web Design Magazine.

Customizing Bootstrap Layouts: Trends, Tools & Frameworks

Bootstrap is currently the number one front-end framework and easily the quickest way to build layouts. It has been around for years and third-party developers have even published their own resources online. These resources range from free themes to detailed plugins and frameworks.

Bootstrap 4: New & Cool Features You’ll Love

The next major release of the Bootstrap framework is around the corner. The alpha version can already be…Read more

In this article, I would like to share a handful of these resources and best practices for developers who want to go further with Bootstrap.

All the resources in this post are free, so you can use them however you see fit. Even if you have never used Bootstrap you’re sure to find something here that will help you get started.

Restyling with Bootstrap

The default Bootstrap library comes with its own unique design that looks fantastic. It’s widely known across the web and you can easily tell when a website is using traditional Bootstrap elements.

But, you can also restyle these elements yourself to use Bootstrap’s code as the foundation for your layout.

There are a few different ways you can do this:

Add your own stylesheet to overwrite the default.

Customize BootStrap’s output, so you only get the elements you want.

Combine with add-ons and plugins/themes.

That last option is the most common and it’s one of the reasons Bootstrap has grown so fast.

Granted I’m also a huge fan of their customize tool because it’s totally free and gives you so much control over which features you want to use.

There are tons of resources for BootStrap 3/4, created by third-party developers, so it’s easier than ever to create your own unique BootStrap layouts without writing much code.

Plugins & add-ons

Since Bootstrap comes with a massive JavaScript library, it’s easy enough to expand JavaScript features. And developers have certainly done so with their own plugins, many released for free online.

These are my favorites that all support Bootstrap natively. Many of them run on jQuery, so they are also easy to customize if you know your way around the jQuery library.

Form validator

First up is my favorite form validation plugin, Form Validator. It runs on jQuery and it supports a whole heap of frontend frameworks: Bootstrap, Foundation, Pure, UIKit, and others.

You can manually append any number of 51 validators to any form on your site. This means visitors will need to meet those validation requirements before they can submit the contents.

Many contact forms use these validators to require working email addresses. But, you can also use them for image uploads, or passwords, pretty much anything your Bootstrap-heart desires.

Datetime picker

Date pickers are also a huge pain to code yourself. Many forms just use dropdown menus for the day/month/year settings but you can also use this Bootstrap date picker plugin to save yourself the hassle.

It’s completely open-source and runs on the Bootstrap 3.x library. You will also notice it supports both the date and time by using another jQuery plugin, Moment.js.

Overall, this library is fantastic to get a working date picker active. It does have a lot of dependencies but, thankfully, you won’t need to write much code to get it working.

Star ratings

Here’s another cool feature for star ratings on the web. You can append a one-to-five star rating anywhere on your site, using the Bootstrap library for JavaScript behaviors.

When the user hovers over these stars the display changes to whatever the rating is based on their cursor position. Then, with one click, the user casts their vote and sets a star rating, including half-star ratings.

This plugin is definitely complicated to set up because you can change a lot of the default settings for more advanced techniques. But, you can see a simple live demo to gauge if this star rating plugin fits with your site.

WATable

Bootstrap comes with its own table layout style for displaying tabular data on the frontend. But, with the WATable plugin, you can add a whole bunch of extra features to your Bootstrap tables.

This is one of the most detailed jQuery plugins out there and these are just some of the features you can add:

Custom pagination.

Column sorting.

Data filtering.

Table animation effects.

Check-to-select entire rows.

WATable is described as a Swiss Army knife of table plugins and I have to agree with this description. The fact that it supports Bootstrap is just the icing on the cake.

These were some of my favorite plugins but there are so many others out there. You can browse through even more on this page if you’re curious.

Bootstrap frameworks

Bootstrap is actually a large framework because it lets users customize the default HTML and CSS styles with a few classes.

But, developers have taken the default BootStrap library and added their own styles to create even larger frameworks that work like themes, so you don’t need to restyle Bootstrap from scratch.

Thankfully, they’re all free and they all run on the default BootStrap classes.

Bootflat

Perhaps the most well-known BootStrap framework is Bootflat UI that follows the flat design trend.

It works with all the default Bootstrap features, including all JavaScript components. The major differences are more in design and structure where page elements use flat color schemes to move away from Bootstrap’s gradient styles.

Bootflat hasn’t been overused very much, so you can add this framework on any landing page or homepage to create a unique look for your site.

It’s 100% free and even comes with a color picker, so you can find flat color schemes to match your layout.

Get Shit Done

This surprisingly blunt UI kit also builds on top of the Bootstrap 3 library and it’s released for free on GitHub.

Get Shit Done comes from the team at Creative Tim where they do sell a few premium resources. This specific UI kit does have a pro version but it’s not necessary at all.

The open-source version has more than enough for everyone and you can check out the live demo to see how it looks like in the browser.

Bootstrap material design

Another popular design trend is Google’s material design. This is a design language originally made for Android app designers but has since spread onto the web and garnered lots of support from UI/UX designers.

This incredible Bootstrap material framework uses the material design features to build a custom design style out of Bootstrap’s library.

By default, it supports everything in BootStrap 3 and is currently being reworked to also support Bootstrap 4. You can learn more on the official homepage which has documentation and demos.

A similar library you might try is MDBootstrap, although I find this one a little more difficult to work with.

Bootplus

Google did create the material design language but they also have their own styles for many of their tools and web apps.

Bootplus mimics the Google+ interface style, along with many of Google’s help docs, Google Drive, and similar web apps. It has all the same features as Bootstrap, including grids, layout styles, element styles, and JavaScript components.

You can even browse through a demo on the site to see the differences between Bootplus and the original Bootstrap UI. For a free resource, Bootplus is extensive and it’s perfect for anyone who likes Google’s design techniques.

Tools & resources

Lastly, I want to dive into the many free tools for customizing and building Bootstrap layouts.

These tools are all web apps and many of them are even open-sourced on GitHub. They’re made to save you time and help you design incredible Bootstrap layouts without much code.

Live editor

The free Bootstrap live editor is one of the best tools for non-technical designers. If you don’t know how to code you can still rely on this Bootstrap builder to create a whole layout from scratch.

It runs right in your browser and you can even pick from pre-made templates to get started.

Options in the sidebar let you add certain CSS values if you do know some frontend coding. But, you can also use the GUI to change colors, fonts, sizes, and pretty much anything else you like.

Once you’re done, click “Get theme” and you can copy/paste the updated CSS styles into your own project. Super easy way to restyle Bootstrap without needing to recode everything from scratch.

Form builder

This free Bootstrap form builder is a drag-and-drop browser tool that allows you to create Bootstrap forms from scratch.

Again, it requires zero coding knowledge and you have full access to all Bootstrap 3 elements. Just select the element you want and drag it right into the left-hand box. From here, you can change everything from the placeholder text to the CSS class.

By far the coolest form builder I’ve ever seen and it’s 100% free!

BootSwatchr

Another free tool I really like is BootSwatchr. It relies on the Bootstrap framework and it lets you update colors, theme styles, and the overall layout of the page.

What I like about this app is how it also comes with a free gallery of pre-designed styles.

So, you can download a design that someone else already made or you can use that as a starting point to customize your own theme.

Moving Forward

Bootstrap is only growing in popularity, so now is the best time to dive into this framework. Thankfully, there are dozens of plugins, frameworks, and free tools you can use to expedite the dev process.

In this article, I just showed the tip of the iceberg, so if you don’t see anything here that’s useful get out to Google and see what else you can find.

Los nuevos input HTML5 para formularios

Toca el turno de repasar cada uno de los nuevos input HTML5. Ya he ido haciendo post de cada uno de ellos, pero ahora voy a realizar un listado y breve resumen de cada uno.

Otros post interesantes son:

Nuevos input de fecha y hora en HTML5

Los nuevos atributos HTML5 para inputs y formularios

Lista de elementos y atributos obsoletos en HTML5

Tal y como sabréis tenemos muchas razones para usar estos input HTML5 y otras para no usarlos de momento:

PROS: Ahorro considerable de código combinando los nuevos input y atributos. De esta manera no necesitaremos realizar tantas validaciones usando PHP, jQuery o similares.

CONTRA: Al no estar estandarizado HTML5 hace que aún haya elementos que no se representen en bastantes navegadores.

Voy a realizar un listado de cada elemento y posteriormente hago un breve resumen de cada elemento para formularios en HTML5:

VALIDACIÓN DE FORMULARIOS CON HTML5 Y EXPRESIONES REGULARES SIN USO DE JS. UTILIZACIÓN DE CSS Y FONTAWESOME PARA MOSTRAR CAMPOS VÁLIDOS EN FORMULARIOS

Con la nueva versión de HTML5 se han incluido dentro de los controles de formulario nuevos formatos que permiten especificar el tipo de dato a incluir en una etiqueta <input> y que explicaremos brevemente sólo como introducción. Mucho más interesante es el atributo pattern que estudiaremos. El atributo pattern permite en cualquier campo <input> de tipo texto y utilizando las sobradamente conocidas expresiones regulares delimitar exactamente la sintaxis de una cadena válida. Incluso con CSS3y webfonts como Font Awesome podremos indicar de forma dinámica sin emplear JavaScript si el contenido de un campo es válido o no.

Pulsando sobre el siguiente botón tendrás acceso al ejemplo explicado en este artículo y a todo el código empleado.

ALGUNOS DE LOS NUEVOS TIPOS DE CAMPOS INTRODUCIDOS CON HTML5

No es ninguna novedad enumerar los nuevos tipos de campos introducidos por HTML5, pero siempre hay algún despistado. Es una forma bastante sencilla de incluir una validación básica simplemente delimitando el tipo de datos a incluir. Relaciono los más conocidos, pero ojo: hay algunos navegadores modernos que aún no los reconocen.

Si os interesa este es un buen recurso donde comprobar el soporte de formularios en distintos navegadores: http://www.wufoo.com.mx/html5/

type=”number” Podemos enviar enteros, estableciendo un mínimo y un máximo como input de texto.

type=”range” Podemos enviar enteros, estableciendo un mínimo y un máximo utilizando un control gráfico.

type=”color” Nos permite seleccionar desde un “color picker” un color y enviarlo como hexadecimal.

type=”date” Nos permite seleccionar una día concreto. En los navegadores más avanzados aparece un calendario.

type=”month”, type=”week”, type=”time” Nos permiten seleccionar distintas unidades de tiempo: mes, semana o año.

type=”email” Permite enviar una dirección de email con una pobre validación a nivel de cadena.

type=”url” Permite enviar una url con una pobre validación a nivel de cadena.

type=”tel” Para el envío de números de teléfono.

type=”search” Para definir campos de búsqueda, aunque realmente se comporta como un campo de tipo texto.

Si queréis conocer con más detalle el funcionamiento de estos nuevos controles de formulario os este enlace en W3Schools: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_form_input_types.asp

Visto lo anterior en cierto modo podemos comenzar a tener cierto control sobre los tipos de datos que pueden admitir los campos input. Hasta ahora con el atributo maxlength podíamos establecer cual era la longitud máxima de una cadena (pero no su mínimo o fijar un tamaño exacto).

Ahora con la inclusión de tipos de datos como email, tel, date, number o url podemos afinar más en el tipo de dato válido. Sin embargo sigue sin ser suficiente.

Datalist input HTML5

Este nuevo elemento aglutina varios valores predefinidos que facilitan el autocompletado de un campo tipo input.

Es decir, según el usuario va escribiendo, el navegador abre una lista desplegable con las diferentes opciones a seleccionar. Es muy parecido a un combo o lista.

Podéis ver la documentación y ejemplos en el post ‘Datalist en HTML5: Sugiere una lista de valores en un form‘.

Os dejo una imagen de ejemplo:

keygen HTML5

Es un campo para enviar claves en el autentificado web.

Al enviarse el formulario se crean 2 claves, una pública que se envía al servidor y que posteriormente se usará para seguir auntentificándonos en el sistema, y otra privada que se almacena localmente en el navegador.

Tenéis mas info y ejemplos en el post ‘keygen HTML5: Un nuevo campo para la generación de claves‘.

output HTML5

Esta nueva etiqueta representa el resultado de un cálculo entre los diferentes input de un formulario.

Tened en cuenta que solo representa y no se recoge dicho dato en el envio del formulario. Podéis verlo en funcionamiento en el post ‘HTML5 output: operaciones matemáticas en tiempo real en tu form‘.

number input HTML5

Este input valida automáticamente que los valores introducidos sean numéricos, con el consiguiente ahorro de código en la recepción o validación de los formularios.

El post en el que hay más info es ‘HTML5 number input: Un nuevo campo de tipo numérico en el form‘.

Os dejo una imagen del elemento.

range input HTML5

Este input es muy parecido al HTML5 number input, la diferentecia radica en que en este caso la única manera de especificar el valor es mediante su slider con sus correspondientes límites.

Podéis verlo en funcionamiento en el post ‘HTML5 range input: rangos de valores con barras de desplazamiento‘.

Y aquí una imagen.

tel input HTML5

Este nuevo input html5 resulta muy últil en los dispositivos móviles actuales.

El dispositivo móvil detecta que el input es de tipo ‘tel’ y al pulsar en él automáticamente sale el teclado telefónico del movil para insertar el número en cuestión.

Lo tenéis todo documentado en el post ‘HTML5 tel input: Campo de formulario para números de teléfono‘.

Os pongo un pantallazo capturado en mi iPhone.

email input HTML5

Pues con este la validación de campos de email va a ser tarea sencilla.

El elemento por defecto detecta que el campo debe ser rellenado con contenido válido de una cuenta de email, por lo que mostrará una @ en el teclado y hara las verificaciones pertinentes para cumplir los requisitos de una dirección de email.

Tenéis más info en el post ‘HTML5 email input: Validación automática de emails en formularios‘.

Imagen de ejemplo.

color input HTML5

Representa una paleta (selector) de colores sin necesidad de añadir plugins ni códigos adicionales como veníamos haciendo hasta ahora. Así con un solo click podemos elegir facílmente un color.

Los ejemplos los podéis ver en el post ‘HTML5 color input: Paleta de colores hexadecimal para formularios‘.

Imagen de ejemplo de la paleta de colores.

search input HTML5

Con este input podremos decir en la validación del formulario que el campo contendrá valores de búsqueda, así el propio input nos porporciona un dato válido y el teclado del dispositivo móvil mostrará el botón ‘buscar’.

Más info en esta entrada del blog ‘HTML5 search input: Campo de búsqueda para formularios‘.

Imagen de ejemplo.

url input HTML5

Se parece bastante a el input tel de HTML5. Este campo cuando se visualiza en dispositivos móviles facilita en el teclado las teclas ‘.’, ‘/’, y ‘.com’.

Más info en el post ‘HTML5 url input: Un campo de formulario para urls‘.

Ejemplo.

date input HTML5

Este elemento vale para representar en nuestra web un datepicker o calendario, el formato de la fecha devuelto es ‘AAAA-MM-DD’.

Podéis ver toda la documentación y ejemplos en el post original ‘Date input HTML5: Un sencillo datepicker para tu formulario‘.

Os dejo una imagen de ejemplo.

datetime input HTML5

Input similar al anterior solo que este último además de la fecha envía también la hora. El formato de fecha y hora devuelto es el siguiente: ‘AAAA-MM-DDTHH:MMZ’.

Podéis ver en funcionamiento y su documentación en el post ‘Datetime input HTML5: Un campo de fecha y hora para formularios‘.

Este elemento está sin implementar en casi todos los navegadores y solo funciona a medias en Safari.

datetime-local input HTML5

Más de lo mismo, elemento idéntico al datetime pero sin enviar la zona horaria. El formato devuelto es: ‘AAAA-MM-DDTHH:MM’.

Podéis consultar su sintaxis y funcionamiento en el post ‘Input datetime-local HTML5: fecha y hora local sin timezone para formularios‘.

Os dejo una imagen de ejemplo:

Month input HTML5

Input para representar mes y año con formato ‘AAAA-MM’.

Su documentación y ejemplos la podéis encontrar en ‘Month input HTML5: Un campo de tipo mes para formularios‘.

Os dejo un pantallazo de su representación:

Time input HTML5

Con la inserción de este elemento en un formulario facilitaremos la entrada de datos para horas, el formato de la info enviada es: ‘HH:MM:SS’.

Podéis ver una amplia explicación de su uso en ‘Time input HTML5: Un campo de formulario para introducir la hora‘.

Y aquí tenéis una imagen:

Week input HTML5

Por último nos queda el input para la inserción del número de la semana de un año en cuestión. Su formato es ‘YYYY-WNN’ –> ‘2014-W07’.

También tengo un post hablando sobre este elemento: ‘Week input HTML5: Un nuevo input para insertar semanas‘.

Os muestro una imagen de su funcionamiento:
