Javascript For Converting Given Date To The Required Timezone
Jul 20, 2005
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?
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.
I'm working on a hotel booking system. I have two datepickers - one for check-in and the other for check-out.Right now, the system allows check-out at the same day as check-in, but I want the hotel guest to have to stay at least one night. Check it out at:
I need some help converting this VBScript over to JavaScript so that the calculations will work properly in browsers other than IE.
You can take a look at Turn 2 Design Code: for a feel about what I'm trying to do, but basicly, I just need to calculate the cost of the selected items based on the selected quantity of that item.
The only thing I know about JavaScript is the small Pop-up scripts I've been able to litterally copy and paste to implement. So, please, dont just post code, post an explaination of whats going on and why so I can try to figure it out. Code:
I have a form that has a few required fields and also an "agree to terms" checkbox that must be required. I have used Javascripts for both functions individually, but I need a little help in combining them. Can someone help me combine these two scripts so they both work on the same page, with <FORM METHOD=POST onSubmit="return checkrequired(this)" etc., checking for required fields and making sure the agree-to-terms button is checked? Code:
I have a simple SEARCH form which matches items from my supplier and delivers the results to the 'body' frame of my website. This works fine and here is the code.
However what I would like to do is use the same SEARCH box information typed in to generate a second search at another supplier and deliver the results alongside in another frame. The frame part is easy enough but how can I get two Form Actions from one form? I understand it cannot be done in HTML but it may be possible in Javascript.
I'm (still) working on an ISO 8601 date parser. I want to convert at least the formats described here:

Well.. I've got most of it working (via RegEx's) good enough for me but I'm having a brain block when it comes to TimeZone.
The datetime may come with an optional timezone offset (from GMT) as here (the offset is +1 hour from GMT):
1997-07-16T19:20:30+01:00
So... that's the current time there... but my spec is that timezone information, if present, should be used to convert the given time to local time. For me, for example, this would be -5:00 from GMT.
I've already split the Timezone information: I've got indiviual access to the sign (plus or minus), the hour offset and the minute offset.
So I'm sure there's a nice, simple formula for this... but it eludes me. Or I'm lazy... I can't decide which.
I am building a website for users that exist around the world and need to show the user's "local machine" time and timezone, not the time of the website host server. Is there a javascript function or process to determine this?
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?
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)
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 am working on date time picker modification. I am copying the time from one source pasting in text box and then once I click on another box. It populates the time on the basis of time zone difference. Now whenever I am doing vice versa. It is going in loop.
I was wondering if I could set the script below to apply to eastern standard time and not the users computer time. So it wont confuse users over seas, Im using it to display scheduled announcements as the header.
<script type="text/javascript"> var d = new Date(); theDay=d.getDay();
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.
