I am trying to use javascript code so that on loading of a webpage, the page displays the day, date, month and year words. So far I have come up with the following but it doesnt seem to be working: Code:
View 3 RepliesAlright so I've been searching around trying to figure out how to change the date format, the way I have seen it the most is like
var d=new Date();
var datestring=d.getdate + d.getMonth + d.get Year
I am new to javascript and this is the first script I have written on my own so this is what it does. It is supposed to display the date that a shipment should arrive on with 2 day shipping through ups so it skips weekends. It displays the date after either adding 2 days or more depending on the day of the week. But the way the date is formatted really needs to be changed.
<script type="text/javascript">
var d=new Date();
var day=d.getDay();
if (day <= 3){
[Code].....
I want to display the date 19/06/2007 in this format.I want to validate the number entered in the textbox i.e for first digit of date it should not accept more than 3 (accept only 0,1,2,3). When the text length reaches 3 & 5 ie after date & month, by default this function should return slash ( / ) - this is to avoid typing / from keyboard.
I don't have any idea to do this.
I have added the function below, which I will be calling onkeypress event.
OnKeyPress="javascript:valNumber(this.value);"
function valNumber(value)
{
var x=value.length;
if(x==0 && (event.keyCode==48||event.keyCode==49||event.keyCode==50||event.keyCode==51))
event.returnValue=true;
else if(x==1 && (event.keyCode>47 && event.keyCode<58))
event.returnValue=true;
else if(x==2)
value = '/'
else
event.returnValue=false;
}
I'm testing out a script that should display date and time by time zone through use of the innerHTML method. Something is off, neither day or time is being displayed on screen.
function initTime(){
var allTags=document.getElementsByTagName("*");
for (var i=0;i<allTags.length;i++){
if(allTags[i].className.indexOf("tz")==0){
[Code]....
I am using the follow code to display the date in a form field, but my date is stuck as 20100106, when my computer shows 20100107.
Code:
<script language="javascript">
function setIt() {
var d = new Date(2010,01,06);
s = d.getFullYear();
[Code]....
ive need to format the date (variable "tomorrow") in this form to mysql
format yyyy-mm-dd can anyone please show me how to amend my script?
<script language="javascript">
function showDate(thisObj){
/* create a Date object using the system clock */
today=new Date();
td = today.getDate();
tm = today.getMonth();
ty = today.getFullYear();
tomorrow=new Date(ty,tm,td+1)
/* convert contents to string and place in control */
document.getElementById(thisObj).value=tomorrow;
}
</script>
<body onLoad="showDate('date');">
<input id="date" type="text" readonly="readonly" />
</body>
In HTML I use <b>...</b> to make parts of a text bold.
<h1 class = "Style-MyText">This text is normal. <b>This text is
bold.</b></h1>
Now I'd like to do the same with a JavaScript.
I tried
HTML: <h1 id = "MyID1" class = "Style-MyText">.</h1>
javascript: document.getElementById("MyID1").firstChild.replaceData(0,
document.getElementById("MyID1").firstChild.nodeValue.length, "This text is
normal. <b>This text is bold.</b>");
Unfortunately <b>...</b> is displayed as '<b>' and '</b>' and not
interpreted to make the text bold.
'View Selection Source' shows: This text is normal. </b>This text is
bold.</b>
Is there a way to make some parts of a text bold with a JavaScript?
I'm creating a simple memory game in which the user has to make pairs
from cards. I would like the user to see the variable "trys" (the
score) update on the page dynamically (in a text box would be great).
I can do this by showing a msgbox every time try increments but this
is annoying to use. I have been trying for hours to get this to work,
using innerhtml. Code:
I have a Java-based web application whose interface can be in multiple
languages. My requirement is that the javascript alerts that I display
should be displayed in the language in which the interface has been
generated. The interface language is dynamically loaded and the text is
displayed using Java's <fmttags.
How can I make the Javascript alerts, etc. also change their display
language dynamically? Is it possible in Javascript or do I have to use
another technology to do the same?
I am having difficulty trying to change the format of selected date from date picker. This is a test so my code is very simple. Here it is.
[Code]....
Recently while messing with dates, I noticed an odd quirk in javascript with new Date(), i.e. if someone enters an invalid date, such as 2/29/2003, javascript creates the new date as 3/1/2003.
Having a look around, I couldn't find any scripts that took advantage of this for the sake of date validation... probably someone here has done this before, but I'll post it anyway.
The idea is that if javascript creates a new Date() with a different month, then obviously the date entered is not valid. Most of the scripts I saw used some math to divide by leap year, yadda yadda yadda, but with this feature (?) of javascript, it seems unnecessary.
Right now this code only validates mm/dd/yyyy, but it should be easy to modify to support other formats:
function isDate(sDate) {
var re = /^d{1,2}/d{1,2}/d{4}$/
if (re.test(sDate)) {
var dArr = sDate.split("/");
var d = new Date(sDate);
return d.getMonth() + 1 == dArr[0] && d.getDate() == dArr[1] && d.getFullYear() == dArr[2];
}
else {
return false;
}
}
Here's a shorter version that works if you pass in the values separately:
function isDate(mm,dd,yyyy) {
var d = new Date(mm + "/" + dd + "/" + yyyy);
return d.getMonth() + 1 == mm && d.getDate() == dd && d.getFullYear() == yyyy;
}
I have written a javascript to compare current date with the date that user has entered in the form. the user enters in YYYY-MM-DD format. here'z the code:
var today= new Date();
var stDate= new Date(document.form[0].startDate.value);
var day=0; var month=0; var year=0;
var todayStr;
day= today.getDate();
month= today.getMonth()+1;
year= today.getFullYear();
todayStr= new Date(year + "-" + month + "-" + day);
alert(todayStr);
if(todayStr>stDate)
{ alert("Current date is greater");}
but todayStr gives NaN . and comparison gives no result.
Im trying to validate my date textbox on my form to only allow mm/dd/yy. If the user enters anything else in I want it to display an error message and focus on the date textbox. Ive looked at many sample scripts with no luck. Anyone out there done this before, and possibly still have the code?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a date function that subtract a certain amount of days from todays date.
Code:
function printDate(offset)
{
var offsetAmount= offset
var currentTime= new Date()
var month= currentTime.getMonth() + 1
var day= currentTime.getDate()
var nDay= day - offsetAmount
var year= currentTime.getFullYear()
document.write(nDay + "/" + month + "/" + year)
}
I need it to be able to recognise when it goes into a previous month (ie instead of 0/6/2006 it will go to 31/5/2006)
Is there any function in JavaScript which validates the date format like isNaN() for numbers? Or have anyone made such function which validates the date entered in the text box i.e. dd-mm-yyyy or yyyy-mm-dd or mm-dd-yyyy or dd/mm/yyy or mm/dd/yyyy or yyyy/mm/dd are only the valid dates??
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a start date and end date text boxs. What I would like to achieve is when a submit button is clicked all the available dates between start and end dates should be displayed together with 3 check boxes next to each date (please see below). I am just wondering whether that'sachievablewith jquery, and if so, how I might be able to implement this.
Start date End date
I just noticed that all my javascript months are off by one month.....didn't test multiple systems tho and my system date is fine.
Any way of fixing this?
I'm looking to return DATE ONLY for yesterday's date. No seconds,
milliseconds. Formatted either yyyy/mm/dd or mm/dd/yyyy. VB does it so
easily Date()-1 will return 03/27/2007 if today is 03/28/2007. Why so
many hoops for javascript? Any ideas?
Apparently, ` new Date() ` reads it correctly, though problems
can occur if the browser returns only two digits for the year.
In particular, time zone, field order and separators may vary.
It is also reliant on the server's clock having been correctly
set at the time of upload. See the URL below.
Okay, this an attempt to port PHP's date() function as much as possible to JavaScript. Could use some refactoring though. Any critique, comments, appraisal and any other opinion is very welcome. Feel free to discuss and also take a look at beetles code here: http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11069

I have date(ex., Thu, 04 Dec 2003 10:35:19 +0500) and I know the
timezone(ex., America/Anchorage). Now I need to convert the date into
the given timezone. Is it possible to achieve this thru js api's?
I've browsed through past usenet archives, but can't seem to come across quite the javascript I'm looking for. I'm looking for a simple javascript that will display the date as such:
May 17
So basically, just displaying the current month and the current date. But I would also like the ability to backdate by one day, two days, etc.. So the next date might look as such:
May 15
Which would be two days earlier than today's date, but in keeping with the same format.
I'm really sorry to post this as I know it must have been asked
countless times before, but I can't find an answer anywhere.
Does anyone have a snippet of JavaScript code I could borrow which
calculated the difference in years and days between two dates, and
takes leap years into account?
I'm calculating the difference in the usual way, i.e....
var difference = dateTo.getTime() - dateFrom.getTime();
....and converting this millisecond value into days by using...
var daysDifference = (difference/1000/60/60/24);
But how do I then display the difference in days AND years? I've tried
the following:
var yearsDifference = Math.floor(daysDifference/365.25);
var daysLeft = Math.floor(daysDifference-(yearsDifference*365.25));
....but it gives me inaccuracies. For example, if I use my code to
calculate the difference between 05/01/1998 and 05/01/2000 it returns 1
year and 364 days!
I have added a booking form to a website with belongs to fastbooking.You can see a temporary website here. http:[url]....It works perfectly fine in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari but it does not load on Internet Explorer.On the other browsers the form loads todays date and the year is generated but on IE the date stays on 01-01 and no year is generated.I'm using wordpress as a cms.I think the code that is not loading is <body onLoad='start();'>But I'm not sure. The code of the year is
<select name='fromyear' class="input" onChange='update_departure();'>
<option value="0"></option>
</select> But since it's no just the year I assume its the onload code.
I tried to add the onload to the header function like this
<body onLoad='start();' <?php if(function_exists('body_class')) body_class(); ?>>
So now wordpress generates the following code when it loads the page
<body onLoad='start();' class="home page page-id-6 page-template page-template-default logged-in">
But sadly the date still does no load on Internet Explorer.
I am trying to use the jquey datepicker. I want to show the date chosen by the user in a <span> element with a particular format. However my code maintains the default format. What am I doing wrong?
[Code]..
We have a little callendar on our website. I have set the format of the date to "dd-mm-y" because I want the date to be saved europian, not american. When comfirming the form, the date is saved as 0000-00-00. The date shows correctly on the form itself. I have two scripts: Calendar.js and Calendar-en-GB.js. Calendar-en-GB.js contains the 'settings'. (Including date format). I can't figure out the problem and thought maybe one of you could. I have uploaded the scripts in one .zip file: [URL]
