The plugins site is currently in development.
We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.
timepicker
This is a fairly simple jQuery plugin that replaces a single text input with a set of pulldown menus to select hour, minute, and am/pm. Minute selections are for quarter hours (:00, :15, :30, :45).
If the original input contains a time value in the format "hh:mmpp" (i.e., "06:30pm"), it will set the pulldown menus to the correct corresponding values. Otherwise it will default to the current time. Minute values are always rounded up to the next quarter hour.
The original input is updated whenever any of the pulldown menus change, so there is no need to change anything else in your HTML form. The plugin can be used safely to convert multiple inputs on the same page.
Options could easily be added for additional time formats or to change the minute increments (say, to every 5 minutes, for instance).
Usage is simple. Given a plain text form input like this:
<input class="time" type="text" name="start" id="start" />You would transform it into a timepicker like so:
$('input.time').timepicker();
