Hi all,
Is there any input date and time for node edit dialog?
Moreover, can we use JQuery UI in node edit dialog?
🤔
Because HTML does not support all browser.
Thank you very much in advance

There is not a node-red core date picker widget.

Yes, the editor uses JQuery UI

Thank you very much 😊 👍
I can use directly JQuery UI datepicker (not include anything) in my created node.

Are the browser native components not sufficient? I believe all modern browsers have date and time input fields.

Thank you very much for your reply. 🙂
I have one more question. Does JQuery UI have 'Time Picker' widget? Because I separate 'Time' input from 'Date'.
I try to search about 'Time Picker' in JQuery UI. Some website tell, it has to use 'timepicker'. But I try to use in edit dialog, the error 'timepicker is not a function ...'. 🤔
Could you please advise me?

The website is quite clear: [Datepicker | jQuery UI](https://jqueryui.com/datepicker/)
No timepicker.

Would standard html5 input text box in time mode work ?

Thank you very much for your advise.
But old browser maybe not support html5. So now I use simple input and then using validate input time. 😊

Looks pretty well supported - apart from IE of course... (which is now past end of life.)

The Node-RED editor will not work in those older browsers.

You can always add a polyfill for older/rubbish browsers:
