Dates range

Hi scobee
if I remember (from the code you sent me  via email)  you're probably using  a really old version of rapyd,  one  used as "library of codeigniter":
http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Rapyd_Components
I'm not sure it's the 0.9 since syntax  is with "new" and without chaining.

It's a bit problematic to help you with this old code but.. the  ability to use datafilter  with a range of date  is  an old stuff.

post some code..  and try to find correct versions of  rapyd  (even  pubblication date, if present) and CI (if you're using CI+rapyd)

bye

Ok, 0.9.6  is versioning of the old "rapyd library" for CI,  discontinued in 2008.

Since 2009 rapyd is a stand alone framework, and sometimes i release a version that works with latest CI  as subframework.

Syntax of rapyd widgets (forms, grids, etc.. ) and crud code  is changed alot,  so you can't upgrade without rewrite code in your application.

However, I found some code on really old  website i made:

...
    $filter->begindate = new dateField("created", "created_begin","eu");
    $filter->begindate->db_name="users.created";
    $filter->begindate->clause="where";
    $filter->begindate->operator=">";
    
    $filter->enddate = new dateField("created", "created_end_date","eu");
    $filter->enddate->db_name="users.created";
    $filter->enddate->clause="where";
    $filter->enddate->operator="<=";
    $filter->enddate->in="begindate";
...

I'm not sure it can work in your exact env.  but,  the concept is..
all you need is to fill  "db_name", "clause" and  "operator"  ("in" only make fields stay on the same output row)
The second param of dateField is an arbitrary alias for the field  (you need to have 2 different alias) and you must specify the same db_name  (the real name of date field you need to  filter from/to)
