Open Pickadate with a default value select bad month

[benjamincanac]

I have a problem with pickadate.

In my view, there is an input with a default value in good format.

I load pickadate on it when the DOM is ready.

When I click on the input, it will show me the calendar as expected, but the month selected is the month + 1 the default value of the input.

For example you have in your input : "21-06-2013", you click on it and the month that will be selected on the calendar is July. No idea why.

This problem is only when the input is pre-set non when it's empty.

Thanks.

The culprit for this, is this line:

return [ parsingObject.yyyy || parsingObject.yy, +( parsingObject.mm || parsingObject.m ) - ( options.data ?  1 : 0 ), parsingObject.dd || parsingObject.d ]

Line 451

It seems if you set a data-value on the input, it will add the additional month on for you, but otherwise it miscalculates the months if they are already in correct format in the value attribute.

This is specifically annoying for Rails, where if you have a datetime field, the value format is always correct, so it should always be nudged 1 to the right.

I'm not sure why this decision was made, so hopefully amsul can give a bit more insight.

EDIT - This code is due to translations, so the values don't get screwed up. Fair enough

Yeah @annez is right.. It was for translations but there was an oversight with the basic behavior of using “mm” or “m” within the input value.

I just pushed a fix to the edge branch that fixes this issue..

Thanks for the fast fix, it's perfectly working now :).

@amsul - I have the same problem on 3.2.1 as was recognised above. Has the fix been carried forward? It only occurs when using default values. Can send link example if required. Notice code listed above is still included in latest version - now line 469 though.

same problem as howlermonkey in version 3.4.0
:(

@Blue1987 there's a PR with the fix here: #358. Going to be merged into 3.4.1 eventually.
