Hijri (Arabic) date picker calendar using PHP or Javascript

Question

I am working on a project that has a form that requires the user to enter a date using the Hijri calendar (Arabic). I am familiar with the Javascript datepickers for the Gregorian calendar.

I searched a lot on the Internet and closest I got the JS code for the Persian calendar, which is in Arabic, but everything else is different. For example, the names of days, months, etc. And the Persian calendar is based on the solar calendar.

In any case, please tell me what I can do.

Thanks.

Answer 1

You must use the library / class to complete this conversion task, one of the options available is what the Ar-PHP library provides (this is a free open source library published under the LGPL license). The following is sample code:

date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); $time = time(); require('I18N/Arabic.php'); $obj = new I18N_Arabic('Date'); $fix = $obj->dateCorrection ($time); echo $obj->date('l dS FY h:i:s A', $time, $fix);

More information on how to make the calculation can be found here.
