Topic: md-form class with input-element does not refresh when js-script updates value
vonmonckl free asked 3 years ago
I am using javascript to use a date from one input-element (DATEINPUT) to populate the value of another input-element (DATEOUTPUT). Both input-elements are decorated with .md-form
class and use the form-control
-class themselves.
Expected behavior
I would expect DATEOUTPUT to update automatically, as soon as the value is populated. Through console.log i can see that the value
-attribute is actually populated.
Actual behavior DATEOUTPUT is only updated after clicking on the Input-element. The label moves up and the Input.value is shown
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
HTML-code
<div class="md-form">
<input id="startDate" type="date" value="" class="form-control" />
<label class="mdb-main-label">Startdatum</label>
</div>
<div class="md-form">
<input id="endDate" type="date" value="" class="form-control" />
<label class="mdb-main-label">EindDatum</label>
</div>
Javascript-code
document.getElementById("startDate").addEventListener("change", setEndDate);
function setEndDate() {
const DATEINPUT = document.getElementById('startDate');
const DATEOUTPUT = document.getElementById('endDate');
var baseDate = DATEINPUT.valueAsDate;
baseDate.setDate(baseDate.getDate() + 1);
DATEOUTPUT.valueAsDate = baseDate;
console.log(baseDate, DATEOUTPUT);
}

Hello vonmoncki,
if I remember correctly it was a bug. Please download the latest MDB Version 4.19.2 which contains the fix for this bug.
