To disable date picker in primefaces calendar

Is there any way where date picker can be disabled in p:calendar element and allow only manual entry of dates in mm/dd/yyyy format?

Solution

  • Why don't you use a regular inputText element then?

    <h:inputText value="#{bean.dateValue}">  
    <f:convertDateTime pattern="MM/dd/yyyy"/>  
</h:inputText>

    By the way: The correct pattern letter for month is M not m, the letter m stands for minutes.
