jQuery UI Timepicker (By François Gélinas) Thanks !! (:

What is this?

This is a jQuery UI time picker plugin built to match with other official jQuery UI widgets. Based on the existing date picker, it will blend nicely with your form and use your selected jQuery UI theme. The plugin is very easy to integrate in your form for time (hours / minutes) inputs.

// when start time change, update minimum for end timepicker
function tpStartSelect( time, endTimePickerInst ) {
   $('#timepicker_end').timepicker('option', {

   $('#timepicker_start').timepicker('option', {
       maxTime: {
           hour: startTimePickerInst.hours,

Example of using the new minTime and maxTime options

[Show code]

        maxTime: { hour: 16, minute: 30 },
        showLeadingZero: true
    });
    // to dinamically set the min and max time :
    function tpMinMaxSetMinTime( hour, minute ) {
        $('#timepicker_minmax_inline').timepicker('option', { minTime: { hour: hour, minute: minute} });
    }
    function tpMinMaxSetMaxTime( hour, minute ) {
        $('#timepicker_minmax_inline').timepicker('option', { maxTime: { hour: hour, minute: minute} });
    }

Example to disable and re-enable a timepicker.

[Show code]

  $('#timepicker_disable_inline').timepicker();
  $('#timepicker_disable').timepicker({showLeadingZero: false });
  $('#btn_disable_tp').click(function() {
      $('#timepicker_disable_inline').timepicker('disable');
      $('#timepicker_disable').timepicker('disable');
  });
  $('#btn_enable_tp').click(function() {
      $('#timepicker_disable_inline').timepicker('enable');
      $('#timepicker_disable').timepicker('enable');
  });

Set the timepicker date with a Date object and get the selected time as a Date object

Also, note that in the returned date object, the time is correct but the yeat/month/day part of the date is wrong, you have to extract the time of the object.
[Show code]

    $('#timepicker_date_obj_inline').timepicker();

    $('#btn_set_time_with_date_obj').click(function() {
        var newTime = new Date('2012-11-24 7:10');
        $('#timepicker_date_obj_inline').timepicker('setTime', newTime);
    });
    $('#btn_get_time_as_date').click(function() {
        var selectedTime =  $('#timepicker_date_obj_inline').timepicker('getTimeAsDate');
        $('#timepicker_selected_time').html('Selected time as date object returned : ' + selectedTime.toString());
    });
});
