Ordinal (st, Nd, Rd, Th) Dates In Javascript
Jul 23, 2005
I'd like to add an automatically updating date field to a webpage. I found the below example on the internet which works brilliantly except I'd like an ordinal date (e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th)
instead of a cardinal date (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4).
How could I do that with this small bit of javascript code?
<script language = "JavaScript">
var now = new Date();
var monNames = new
Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");
document.write("Last updated: " + now.getDate() + " " +
monNames[now.getMonth()] + " " + now.getFullYear());
</script>

How do I get the ordinal of a form element from a reference to the
object itself.
For example:
<html>
<script language="javascript">
function disp_val(objField){
alert(---the ordinal of objField in form---)
}
</script>
<body>
<form>
<input type="text" onblur="disp_val(this)"><br>
<input type="text" onblur="disp_val(this)">
</form>
</body>
</html>
I need to pass the ordinal to another function which I have no control
over. Not having any luck figuring this out. I'm sure it's simple and
I'm missing the obvious solution. I'm workign strictly with IE 5.5+.

I've written several scripts that have "while" blocks which increment a
date by one day if the date does not match one of a group of dates.
However, sometimes it apparently steps out out the while loop even
though my condition isn't met. Will work for a few loops then steps out
often.
Are there javascript "date" issues? I have also noticed different
results between Firefox and Internet Explorer.

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.

This problem seems to occur dependant on the computer system settings.
I have no issues when the system date is set as M/d/yyyy but I do
have a problem with the system date set as d/M/yyyy.
I have a text box on a web page that holds the date ie)
document.frmTimesheet.tWeekFrom.value = 19/12/2004
theDate = new Date(document.frmTimesheet.tWeekFrom.value);
// split into day, month, year
iDay = theDate.getDate();
iMonth = theDate.getMonth()+1;
iYear = theDate.getFullYear();
alert(iDay);
alert(iMonth);
alert(iYear);
iday= 12
iMonth= 07
iYear= 2005

I am currently using a function to validate a form on the client side
(see code below). At the end of the function, I would like it to also
compare a startDate against an endDate to ensure that the endDate is
greater than (comes after) the startDate. The date format I'm using is
MM/DD/YYYY and it's writing to an MS SQL Server 2000 database table
via ASP. Code:

I want to obtain the user's current age by comparing their date of birth
(user inputs) to the current date.
I know how to get the Current Date but I'm not finding how to calculate the
Current Date minus the User's Birthday.
It would be something like yourage = curdate - bday;
I will then use the results to determine if the User is Over 21 or Under 21.
I'm going nuts trying to figure this out.
Is there an Easier Book to learn this stuff other than the "Begining
JavaScript 2nd Edition". Code:

If I had a date in the format "01-Jan-05" it does not sort properly with my sort routine:
function compareDate(a,b)
{
var date_a = new Date(a);
var date_b = new Date(b);
if (date_a < date_b)
{ return -1; }
else
{
if (date_a > date_b)
{ return 1; }
else
{ return 0; }
}
}
I guess it expects the date in mm/dd/yyyy format.
Do I have to change:
var date_a = new Date(a);
var date_b = new Date(b);
so it recognizes a correct format?

I have a successful script for determining today's date. Does anyone have anything for determining tomorrow and the next day since it would have to look at the day of month and month of year?

A HTML Form has 2 sets of 3 dropdown select lists. The 1st set is for users to enter the start time & the 2nd set is for users to enter the end time. The 1st dropdown select list in both the sets is where users will select hours, the 2nd dropdown select list in both the sets is where users will select minutes (the 2nd dropdown select list in both the sets have 4 options - 00, 15, 30 & 45). The 3rd dropdown select list in both the sets is where users will select either AM or PM.
Now it's quite obvious that the start time can come after the end time (on the same date). For e.g. you can't let users select the start time as 9:00 AM & the end time as 6:00 AM.
How do I validate that the end time always comes after the start time & vice-versa?

I would like to know how to achieve this. I want to know the difference between two dates in months, how much days left over, and how much hours left over. I do not need days or hours equivalent to the months remaining. The problem is I also want it to consider February's less than 30 days and 29 days in leap year. I spend my entire week trying to figure out how to do it.
In the end I want values in variable months_left, days_left, and hours_left. I tried modifying several date deference scripts but I couldn't get them to work as intended.

For my website i would like to display the age of my son in years,
months, days and hours.
For now i manage to get a result for totals. Like the total number of
days.
This is the beginning:
starttime = Date.parse("Aug 10,2003, 07:07")
sdt = new Date(starttime)
starttime= Math.ceil((starttime) / 1000 / 60 / 60 / 24 )
ndt = new Date()
y = sdt.getYear()
m = sdt.getMonth() + 1
d = sdt.getDate()
h = starttime

I have two date fields (check in, check out) and "number of days"
field.
I want the script to calculate automatically the difference.
For example: I have defaults dates, and I want the script to put the
difference in "number of days" field. And if the user will change the
date, the number of days will change automatically.

I am using the standard datepicker but it has been highly modified to meet our needs. We have an option to select an entire week of dates:
[Code]..
What I'm trying to do is retrieve the first date of that selected week and the last date. All attempts have failed.

I'm trying to get a select box to automaticly populate the year ranging from 2008 to the current year + two years.Below I've put the code I've got so far which populates it with the current year plus two years so for example at the moment it shows 2009, 2010 & 2011. Next year it would show 2010, 2011, 2012 but I need it to start at 2008 so this year it would show 2008, 2009, 2011 & 2012 and next year 2008, 2009, 2011 & 2012.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var year = new Date();
var nextYear = year.getFullYear()+1;
var nextYear2 = year.getFullYear()+2;

Here is my dilemna. I know HTML...and that's about it. So someone decided to give me a project that involves JavaScript. i've been reading tutorials online as much as possible...but I am a way beginner - be soft on me.
I have a form that had many drop down boxes. When a user selects a specific request type it populates the standard turnaround time in business days.
I need the "Standard Delivery Date" box to then autopopulate today's date plus the standard turnaround time that pops up in that field. How??
Here is a code that I have been working on - but so far it's not working.code...

I have the following script
function timeDifference(laterdate,earlierdate) {
var difference = laterdate.getTime() - earlierdate.getTime();
var daysDifference = Math.floor(difference/1000/60/60/24);
difference -= daysDifference*1000*60*60*24
document.write('difference = ' + daysDifference + ' day/s ');
}
var laterdate = ?;
var earlierdate = ?;
timeDifference(laterdate,earlierdate);
//--></script>
And would like to insert my datein and dateout values where the ? marks are above in red. I can call these variables into the form on the page using <%=Request("datein")%> but how do I call a variable into the script above?

Calculating the difference between two dates in JavaScript is relatively straightforward, provided you choose the right Date methods to work with. Whichever way you get there. code...

So I'm supposed to be using a form to get the date of Easter or Ash Wednesday and return the other. It should also check that the date for Easter is a Sunday and the date for Ash Wednesday is indeed on Wednesday. What I have so far isn't working. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I know my if...else logic isn't going to work right since I've assigned new Date () to easter and ash. How to clean this up and get it working right?
<html>
<head>
<title>Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var ash = new Date();
var easter = new Date();
var temp;
var month = new Array ("January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December");
function convMonth (){
}function fnAshToEaster (){
ash.setDate(document.formAshToEaster.ashDate.value);
ash.setMonth(document.formAshToEaster.ashMonth.value);
ash.setYear(document.formAshToEaster.ashYear.value);
easter.setDate(document.formAshToEaster.easterDate.value);
easter.setMonth(document.formAshToEaster.easterMonth.value);
easter.setYear(document.formAshToEaster.easterYear.value);
if (ash == "") .....

Code:
<script language = 'JavaScript'>
<!--
function checkDate()
{ var d1, d2
d1 = new Date(document.form1.date1.value)
d2 = new Date(document.form1.date2.value)
if (d2.getTime() < d1.getTime()) {
window.alert ("The end date can not be before the start date.")
return false } else { return true }
}
//-->
</script>
, where date2 is the end date and date1 is the start date.
& then I have put
PHP Code:
<form name='form1' action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" ONSUBMIT = 'return checkDate()' method="post">
Each time I am doing submit, it is directly going to the alert, without checking the condition?
