calendar.setChosenDate issue

[kmkale]

Hi
We are using v8.3p_2013-03-21/PowerEdition Deployment 2013-03-21

When trying to set the chosenDate like
chosenDate:"new date()",
or like chosenDate:"2013-04-19",
I get an error
TypeError: this.chosenDate.getFullYear is not a function

And If I try to set it like calendar.setChosenDate("2013-04-19");
I get an error
TypeError: _1.getFullYear is not a function

What is going wrong here? How do I set the chosenDate?

By passing it an actual Date - your first example without the quotes is correct:

chosenDate: new Date()

[kmkale]

That does not throw an error but it has no effect. The date is not highlighted in the monthview.

Please see the screenshot attached.

No, and that's correct - chosenDate dictates which events are loaded in the current view; the chosenDate itself, or the week/month in which the chosenDate exists - the only place you will see a date hilited is in the Date-Picker popup window.

Ok. Then how do I highlight the current date of the monthview on create?
Here is my code for the calendar.

isc.Calendar.create({
        ID: "taskCalendar", 
        width: 500,
        height: 220,
        showDayView: false,
        showWeekView: false,
        showOtherDays: false,
        showDayHeaders: false,
        showDateChooser: false,
        showDatePickerButton: false,
        showAddEventButton: false,
        disableWeekends: false,
        //dataSource: eventDS,
        chosenDate:new Date(),
        todayBackgroundColor:"#FFFF00",
        autoFetchData: true,
        canCreateEvents : false,
        getDayBodyHTML : function (date, events, calendar, rowNum, colNum) {
            returnStr = date.getDate() + " ";
          
            return returnStr;
        },
        dayBodyClick : function (date, events, calendar, rowNum, colNum) {
        
            var advancedCriteria1 = {
                        _constructor: "AdvancedCriteria",
                        operator: "and",
                        criteria:[
    						//{fieldName: "todotype",operator: "equals", value:1},
    						{ fieldName: "todoplandate", operator: "greaterOrEqual", value: (new Date(date.setHours(00, 00, 00, 0))) },
    						{ fieldName: "todoplandate", operator: "lessOrEqual", value: (new Date(date.setHours(23, 59, 59, 0))) }
    					]
			};
			ListGrid0.fetchData(advancedCriteria1);
        }
        
        
});

We've made a change to have this behave as you expect - please retest with a build dated April 22 or later
