Calendar Release Notes

*** version 2.5.0 *** 

+ Prevent default event handling in CalendarNavigator enter key 
  listener, to prevent automatic form submission when using Calendar
  inside a form.

+ Added workaround to DateMath.add and subtract for Safari 2 (webkit) 
  bug in Date.setDate(n) which doesn't handle value of n less than -128 
  or greater than 127 correctly.

  See: http://brianary.blogspot.com/2006/03/safari-date-bug.html

+ Added border, padding and margin rules to Calendar Sam Skin to 
  protect Sam Skin's look and feel when Calendar is used with 
  YUI base.css

*** version 2.4.0 *** 

+ Added CalendarNavigator (year selector) feature to allow the user to 
  jump to a year/month directly without having to scroll through months
  sequentially. 

  The feature is enabled/configured using the "navigator" configuration
  property.

+ Added Custom Events: 

    showNav/beforeShowNav
    hideNav/beforeHideNav, 
    renderNav/beforeRenderNav 

  To Calendar/CalendarGroup, in support of the CalendarNavigator 
  functionality. 

+ Added Custom Events:

    show/beforeShow
    hide/beforeHide 

  To Calendar and CalendarGroup. Returning false from a 
  beforeShow/beforeHide listener can be used to prevent the Calendar 
  from being shown/hidden respectively. 

+ Added Public Methods: 

    getCellIndex(date)    [ Calendar ]
    getCalendarPage(date) [ CalendarGroup ]
    toDate(dateArray)     [ Calendar/CalendarGroup ]
    removeRenderers()     [ Calendar/CalendarGroup ]
    
+ The Calendar/CalendarGroup constructor is now more flexible: 

    * It no longer requires an "id" argument. 

      In it's simplest form, a Calendar/CalendarGroup can be 
      constructed by simply providing a container id or reference.

          var cal = new YAHOO.widget.Calendar("container"); 
          -or-
          var containerDiv = YAHOO.util.Dom.get("container");
          var cal = new YAHOO.widget.Calendar(containerDiv); 

      An id for the Calendar does not need to be provided, and will be 
      generated from the container id by appending an "_t" suffix to the
      container id if only the container is provided. 

    * The container argument can be either a string, representing the 
      id of the container, or an HTMLElement referring to the container 
      element itself, as suggested in the example above. 

    * If an HTMLElement is provided for the container argument and the 
      element does not have an id, one will be generated for it using 
      YAHOO.util.Dom.generateId(). 

    * The older form of Calendar/CalendarGroup signature, expecting 
      both an id and containerId is still supported and works as it did 
      prior to 2.4.0. 

+ Fixed performance issue, where the same custom renderer was being 
  applied multiple times to the same cell.

+ Added getDate(year, month, date) factory method to the DateMath utility, 
  which can be used to create JavaScript Date instances for years less 
  than 100.

  The default Date(year, month, date) constructor implementations across 
  browsers, assume that if year < 100, the caller is referring to the 
  nineteen hundreds, and the year is set to 19xx instead of xx (as with
  the deprecated setYear method). However Date.setFullYear(xx) can 
  be used to set dates below 100. The above factory method provides a 
  construction mechanism consistent with setFullYear.

+ Changed Calendar/CalendarGroup/DateMath code to use the DateMath.getDate
  method, so that 2 digit years are  not assumed to be in the 1900's. 

  NOTE: Calendar's API already expects 4 digit date strings when referring 
  to years after 999.

*** version 2.3.1 *** 

+ Changed Calendar/CalendarGroup to render an empty title bar element 
  when "close" is set to true, but "title" has not been set, to allow Sam 
  Skin to render a title bar correctly. 

*** version 2.3.0 *** 

+ Added checks to select, selectCell, deselect and deselectCell methods 
  to ensure the Calendar/Calendar group was not set to an invalid state 
  by programmatically selecting unselectable dates or cells.
  
+ Added new locale configuration properties for the Month/Year label 
  used in the Calendar header (MY_LABEL_MONTH_POSITION, 
  MY_LABEL_YEAR_POSITION, MY_LABEL_YEAR_SUFFIX, MY_LABEL_MONTH_SUFFIX). 
  Japan is an example locale, where customization of the Month/Year 
  label is required.
  
+ Changed "first", "last" class names to "first-of-type", "last-of-type", 
  to avoid collision with YUI Grids' use of the "first" class name.
  
+ Added public isDateOOB method, to check if a given date is outside of 
  the minimum/maximum configuration dates of the Calendar.
  
+ Deprecated YAHOO.widget.Calendar.browser, refactored to use 
  YAHOO.env.ua instead. 
  
+ Removed overflow:hidden from default Calendar/CalendarGroup container 
  for non-IE6 browsers to fix clipping issue with IE7 when CalendarGroup 
  was inside a box with a specific width. overflow:hidden is still 
  required for IE6 with an iframe shim.

+ Added Opera container width calculation fix to CalendarGroup.show 
  method, to fix incorrect wrapping when using a CalendarGroup which is 
  initially rendered hidden (display:none). Previously this fix was 
  only applied on render. 

*** version 2.2.2 *** 

+ Fixed problem with selected dates being shared across instances, when 
  more than one Calendar/CalendarGroup was on the page 

*** version 2.2.1 *** 

+ Fixed problem with selectCell adding duplicate selected date entries 
  for dates which were already selected

+ Fixed problem with CalendarGroup iframe shim not covering the 
  CalendarGroup title area
  
+ Removed javascript:void(null) from close button and cell links which 
  was interrupting form submission and firing onbeforeunload in IE
  
+ Fixed problem with CalendarGroup getSelectedDates returning invalid 
  results, when used in conjunction with the "selected" Config property 
  (either passed in the constructor config argument or set seperately 
  after construction)
  
+ Refactored Calendar and CalendarGroup to improve performance, 
  especially when working with a large number of instances in 
  IE6 

*** version 2.2.0 *** 

+ Image customization can now be done through CSS. Images for Close, 
  Left and Right Arrows are now pulled in using CSS defined in 
  calendar.css and by default use relative paths to the images in 
  the same directory as calendar.css.
  
+ Deprecated Calendar.IMG_ROOT and NAV_ARROW_LEFT, NAV_ARROW_RIGHT 
  configuration properties. Customizations based on older releases 
  which set these properties will still function as expected.

+ Deprecated CalendarGroup.CSS_2UPCLOSE. Calendar's Style.CSS_CLOSE 
  property now represents the new default CSS class (calclose) for 
  the close button. CSS_2UPCLOSE is still applied along with 
  CSS_CLOSE to the new markup for the close button to support existing
  customizations of the CSS_2UPCLOSE CSS class (close-icon)

+ Fixed problem with Safari setting Calendar pages to incorrect dates 
  if the pages spanned a year boundary in CalendarGroups with 3 or more 
  pages, due to a bug in Safari's implementation of Date setMonth

+ Fixed problem with CalendarGroup setMonth rendering Calendar pages 
  with incorrect dates in all browsers if current pages spanned year 
  boundary 

+ Fixed incorrect CalendarGroup logging statement in calendar-debug.js

+ Fixed domEventMap support for Safari versions prior to 2.0.2, 
  caused by hasOwnProperty not being supported
  
+ Removed unused private property : _pageDate from Calendar class 

*** version 0.12.2 *** 

+ Corrected documentation for clearTime function to reflect the 
  change from midnight to noon 

*** version 0.12.1 *** 

+ Calendar and CalendarGroup now automatically parse the argument 
  passed to setMonth and setYear into an integer, eliminating 
  potential concatenation bugs. 

*** version 0.12 *** 

+ New documentation format implemented

+ Calendar2up and Calendar_Core are now deprecated. Now, Calendar alone
  represents the single Calendar instance, and CalendarGroup represents 
  an n-up instance, defaulting to 2up
  
+ Added semantic style classes to Calendar elements to allow for 
  custom styling solely using CSS.
  
+ Remapped all configuration properties to use the Config object 
 (familiar to those who use the Container collection of controls). 
 Property names are the same as their previous counterparts, but 
 wrapped into Calendar.cfg, allowing for runtime reconfiguration of 
 most properties
 
+ Added "title" property for setting the Calendar title

+ Added "close" property for enabling and disabling the close icon

+ Added "iframe" property for enabling an iframe shim in Internet 
  Explorer 6 and below to fix the select bleed-through bug
  
+ pageDate moved to property: "pagedate"

+ selectedDates moved to property: "selected"

  Date object like its predecessor, but also supports string dates
  
+ Moved style declarations to initStyles function

+ Optimized event handling in doSelectCell/doCellMouseOver/
  doCellMouseOut by only attaching the listener to the outer 
  Calendar container, and only reacting to events on cells with 
  the "selectable" CSS class.
  
+ Added domEventMap field for applying DOM event listeners to cells 
  containing specific class and tag combinations.
  
+ Moved all cell DOM event attachment to applyListeners function

  subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
  
+ Deprecated onBeforeDeselect. Created beforeSelectEvent which 
  automatically subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.

  automatically subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
  
+ Deprecated onChangePage. Created changePageEvent, which automatically
  subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
  
+ Deprecated onRender. Created renderEvent, which automatically 
  subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
  
+ Deprecated onReset. Created resetEvent, which automatically 
  subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
  
+ Deprecated onClear. Created clearEvent, which automatically 
  subscribes to its deprecated predecessor.
