I am having trouble getting a reference to the dijit form widget when the form contains a DateTextBox. The code snippet below demonstrates the problem. When executed, the alert box says "undefined". However, if I get rid of <input ... id="dateTextBox"... />
, I am able to get a reference to the form widget.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.9.1/dijit/themes/claro/claro.css" media="screen">
<!-- load dojo and provide config via data attribute -->

<script type="text/javascript">
require(["dijit/form/TextBox", "dijit/form/DateTextBox"]);
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
require(["dojo/parser", "dijit/registry", "dijit/form/Form", "dojo/domReady!"],
function(parser, registry) {
parser.parse();
alert(registry.byId("frm_test"));
});
</script>
</head>
<body class="claro">
<div data-dojo-type="dijit/form/Form" id="frm_test" encType="multipart/form-data" action="" method="">
<input type="text" id="textBox" name="textBox" data-dojo-type="dijit/form/TextBox" />
<input type="text" id="dateTextBox" name="dateTextBox" data-dojo-type="dijit/form/DateTextBox" />
</div>
</body>
</html>
I'd recommend wrapping the
registry.byId
into aready
call.Keep
parse onLoad: true
, removeas the parser will auto require (when dojo>= 1.8) and use the following:
