I 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)
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.
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:
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?
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??
I 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.
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
Oh, and the date() function is described here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

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
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?
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]
I have a problem setting the default date of my jquery datepicker to the date that I retrieved from my database. I'm currently using the jquery datepicker linked to selects/ drop downs. I auto-fill my selects (month, day, year) from an external javascript. (fbDateTime.js)
I want to display the alert when user enters the time less than the system time and date should be current date and if the date is greater than current date it should ignore the alert box. Here is the code
<script type="text/javascript"> function check() { var now = new Date(), timeParts = document.contact_form.time.value.split(':'),
Can anybody give me complete code and steps wherein i can implement the dtpicker in only "yyyy-mm-dd" format. i want the user to select the date using this dtpicker and the selected date should show in the textbox on the form.
My question is.. I have one text box there user types the date as follows (d-m-yy) 5-4-09 or 15-3-94 how can i convert them into exact (dd-mm-yyyy) 05-04-2009 or 15-03-1994 is there any 'javascript' code to convert the given date into my desired formt...
Say I put a date and time for like this: Jun-15-04 21:52:06. Here is the form I am using:
<form> <p><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><br> date</p> <p><input type="text" name="T2" size="20"><br> 90 days from date</p> <p><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"></p> </form>
How could I get to show the date 90 days later to the exact date and time. I would enter the data in the first box and hit submit to show in the second box.
I'd like to insert a date on a webpage in the following format: Monday, May 10, 2010 However, I want to be able to set the date 6 days before the current date. So, if today's date is Monday, May 10, 2010, I want it to instead display the following: Tuesday, May 4, 2010
I've inherited a Form which calculates a future date based on a calculation and then inserts today's date and the future date into a database. The day part of the date is formatted as a number. This is fine, but up to 9 the numbers display in single figures with no leading zeros. I want them to display leading zeros (e.g. 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11... 30, 31) So;
1/12/2010 is NOT wanted 01/12/2010 IS wanted
The inherited code originally set the Month names as "Jan", "Feb" etc, and it was easy to kludge these to 01, 02... 12, but I suspect there's a more elgant solution to this as well, this bit of the code works so it's not as vital to neaten this but my database needs dd/mm/yyyy format (it's a third party email program).
