Well you'll have to use JavaScript to actually catch the onchange event.
You should be able to just do:
<t:inputDate ... onchange="submit();" >
<t:valueChangeListener value="#{backingBean.onDateChanged}" />
</t:inputDate>
And then in you onDateChanged() method, calculate the days and set that
components value.

Hi,
I am working on a holiday booking application for our Intranet, and I am
trying to do something, but I am not sure if it is possible or not.
Basically, the user enters two dates using the Tomahawk calendar (popup
version), the start of their holiday, and the end of their holiday, and
there is a field which shows how many business days (excluding bank
holidays and weekends) between that date range, so the user knows how
many days they are actually booking off.
The problem is that I want that field to update dynamically (without
using Javascript), so when the user has selected the two dates, the
number of business days will appear in the box immediately. Therefore I
guess I need the calendar component to trigger an action / POST of the
form information when a date is selected.
The question is, can I get it to do that?
I have searched through the mailing list, documentation, and Google, and
I can't find anything like it... I guess if it can't be done, I guess I
can resort to some kind of "calculate days" button, but I would rather
not do! :)
I am using the 1.2 reference implementation of JSF with Facelets and the
latest Tomahawk.
Thanks in advance for any help!
