Introduction

Several English date time pickers are available, but there is no Urdu dtpicker. This is the first time that an Urdu dtpicker is available on the Web. For Urdu dtpicker, the Unicoding technique has been used. For a fine look and best scripting, a powerful CSS is applied.

Background

This article is very useful for new programmers and Urdu lovers. Urdu language has a powerful historical background and literature, so it is time to promote NET Urdu.

Using the Code

// short day names
Calendar._SDN = new Array
("??????",
"???",
"????",
"???",
"??????",
"????",
"????",
"?????");
// First day of the week. "0" means display Sunday first, "1" means display
// Monday first, etc.
Calendar._FD = 0;
// full month names
Calendar._MN = new Array
("?????",
"?????",
"????",
"?????",
"??",
"???",
"?????",
"????",
"?????",
"??????",
"?????",
"?????");
// short month names

Keep the language texts (strings) configurable, so that any other language can be plugged in easily.
