JQuery :: Converting The Text Of A Datetime Field To Another Format
Apr 27, 2011
I am trying to convert the text of a datetime field from UTC to a more American friendly format.
I am having trouble getting the text to change to the converted version. I have each input of type=datetime-local assigned to a class dateTime and I am using the function below.
The code runs without error, but the text of the control is not updated.
$('.dateTime').click(function() {
var mainParts = $(this).attr('value').split('T');
if (mainParts.length > 1){
var dateParts = mainParts[0].split('-');
I'm trying to create a countdown timer that uses datetimes from a database.
So far I have the endDate as a DateTime object. What I want to be able to do is pass this into javascript as a javascript DateTime, then find the difference between the endDate and Now, and countdown the days, hours, minutes, seconds until the endDate datetime then stop.
So how do i get a PHP datetime object into javascript as a js datetime.
I'm trying to convert a long "string" of numbers given as a YYMMDD format into a DD-MM-YY format.
Code: 850416 would need to become 16-04-85.
I looked into the split() method but as far as I know it doesn't allow to cut off numbers in pairs rather than using a specific delimiter. Is there a way to do this?
Result would be:
Code: 85,04,16
The rest - reversing the array and replacing the "," delimiters with "-" - would be no problem.
how to approach this but I have a date input that uses a jQuery pop-up for a calendar, and enters the date in a format d MMM yy (1 Jan 11).
Not everyone wants to be clicking and choosing the date from the calendar but to be entering it just as a number such as 0101, 010111 or 01012011 which can be faster. This would then need to be converted to the d MMM yy format as per the jQuery pop-up when they exit the input box.
So really only if it's a number format it needs to look at the number of digits... and does the conversion.
Has anyone done something like this before? Or is there a link to how I could go about achieving this?
I have a problem related to Javascript. 1) I have a php form in which there two text boxes. 2) User enter date in these text boxes via using a calender control. 3) Dates displayed in the textbox in this format i.e: 05-11-2009 I need to compare the dates of both text boxes, but my code is not working fine. I think I need to convert these the values of both text boxes to date format, but I am unable to do this.
Is it possible to convert an item of form field data to uppercase using the toUpperCase() method? What I'm really asking is, how do I reference the data item?
I have this code, I know it has ASP in it but the ASP isnt giving me the hard time, the javascript is (I think...). Right now users can use this drop down menu to get to a certain page, but instead i need to have them type in a number and then have it go to that page in a new window (as they are PDF files) and if not, display an error. Right now I have
<select name="catalogPage" > <%for i = 1 to 396%> <option value="<%=i%>.pdf"><%=i%></option> <%next%> </select>
And that works fine, but Ive tried countless different things and nothing seems to give me the desired result.
I have a problem with the datePicker that I am trying to solve this for the past 2 days now.Looked at all the tutorials and posts but nothing helped.My problem is that I want the datePicker to return the date as: dd/mm/yyyy and whatever I tried, the input field that gets the selected date displays it as: Tue Apr 26 2011 00:00:00
I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
I have an XML file hosted by my ISP free web space. It naively treats the file as text/plain. I would like to convert this data into a DOM object. So far my googling has turned up nothing, although looking over the DOM manual on Mozilla I came up with:
function convertDOM(text) { var lines = text.split(" "); var dom = document.createDocumentFragment(); for (var i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) { var node = document.createTextNode(lines[i]); dom.appendChild(node); } return dom; }
The returned object is not treated as an DOM object. Anything I am missing / A different approach maybe?
I did some search from the internet and check for jquery plugin that I can use so that I can display datetime base on clients local time. But not much seems to be what I'm looking for.Example like the facebook wall's post that posted datetime. It will display like 12 mins but as u stay on the page more than a min it will display 13 mins. Then for older post it will dispaly in more details like month, day, year, time, etc.
I have an asp page that uses a calendar.js (pop-up) file to add an exact date format in the text field (txtDDate). My problem is I need some javascript that sets an alert that does not allow them to select today.
example: var dtToday = Date() if(document.frmSoftware.txtDDate.value == dtToday) { alert("You cannot select same day distributions. Please enter a new value in the "Delivery Date" field."); return false }
But dtToday is blank....How can I get dtToday value? Also, when I set the dtToday value outside javascript and used a Response.Write to see what format Date() came up with - it gave me 1/24/2005 - but the calendar pop-up gives me 01/24/2005....could this also be the issue?
i am looking for a way to click on a button next to a time field that will paste the current date and time into that filed in this format: 01:00:00 08-08-2007 is that possible?
Iam using JQuery DatePicker Plugin , created by Kelvin Luck [url]. Plugins default format is d/m/Y. how to change its default format to US Date format (m/d/Y).
I am new to Java Script. I have a need to create a DATETIME picker control on a form. The requirement is that the calender should load only 10 days back from the current date. The date format in the DTP is like Thu, Jun 11, 2009. How do I do this?
I am trying to make some dynamic effect to a HTML page using JQuery.<br/> 1.<br/> When the user clicks a Radio field, the field will be highlighted.<br/> 2.<br/> When the user clicks the Radio 'Man', <br/>a Input text box will be provided immeditely just below it.
Here is my simple HTML page, but I don't know how to do with the JQuery part:
I wish to ammend it so that the time or h:m:s part is validated only if supplied (i.e. I wish to make the time part optional). At present if a time is not supplied the validation fails. I gather that the following part of the above expression
(20|21|22|23|[0-1]?d):[0-5]?d:[0-5]?d$
validates the time, however I don't know the syntax to make it optional.
<script type=text/javascript> function hide_tooltip(){ var hp = document.getElementById("tooltipper"); hp.style.left=0; hp.style.top=0; hp.style.width=1; hp.style.height=1; hp.style.padding=0; hp.style.border=0; hp.innerHTML=""; } function show_tooltip(event,wid,ht,txt){ var vp=document.getElementById("tooltipper"); vp.style.border="1px solid black"; vp.style.left=event.clientX+25; vp.style.top=event.clientY-1; vp.style.width = wid; vp.style.height = ht; vp.style.padding=10; vp.innerHTML=txt;
}
</script>
</head>
<body> <BR><BR> <form>
<a href=# onmouseover="javascript:show_tooltip(event,400,10,'This is an input text box that you need to fill in.');" onmouseout="javascript:hide_tooltip();" style='color:red'><input type=text name='bob'></a> </form> <div id='tooltipper' style='position:absolute;left:0;top:0;width:1;heig ht:1;border:0;background-color:rgb(250,250,255)'></div> </body></html> ===================================== Question:... Is there any way to insert a NewLine in the text string to control the formatting of the text in the window??
I have a web form. I use a simple function to generate a letter ouput based on the form fields and populate them into a word doc for printing. Below is a basic example, but you get the idea.
Note this is only intended to be used on IE8. As it stands, the ouput generates and formats exactly as I want bar two things:
1) Does anyone know how I can get some of the text to bold? I've tried everything I can think of (html tags, escape characters etc etc). Is there a way to open a word window in rtf perhaps?
2) Does anyone know how I can insert a small image (a signature in gif or jpg) into the document?
I can use a browser window instead of word, which formats, bolds, images etc, however I then get the issue of headers/footers when printing. I cannot disable headers everytime I want to print a letter, it's not practical.
I have the following script that converts line breaks from plain text into HTML formatted paragraphs. It takes plain text from one text area field and outputs the new formatted text into another text area field.
function convertText(){ var noBreaks = document.getElementById("oldText").value; noBreaks = noBreaks.replace(/
I'm trying to reduce the height of input buttons, but am unable to center the text vertically. Tried every css trick I know, but the text is still too low (I can make it lower :P). Any way to do this?
I was wondering how you allow the user to highlight text they've typed (in a form) and click a button to edit its style (placing tags around the highlighted text).
Could someone explain this a little further and perhaps provide an example.
