Javascript To Display Current Date (and Back Dates)
Jul 23, 2005
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 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(':'),
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
how to disable the selection of future dates, i.e. any date that occurs after the current date.Basically I need to remove the link from all future dates, so they appear but are not clickable.
Still a bit of a jquery newbie here, I'm making a form and using the date picker plugin by eyecon. But when the calendar pops out, instead of seeing the month and dates, It just repeatedly prints 'NaN'. This is super freaky and I cant figure out why.
Here is a link to the page [URL]... Just scroll down to start day and end day under trip information and click on the input box and you'll see what I mean.
I hope someone out there is familiar with this plugin because it was super easy to implement and the code is really clean. [URL].. Here is my js invocation code looks like $('.startDay').DatePicker({
I'm using this validation plugin alidation/and it is great.However, it rejects dates like 07-14-2009 as invalid. Is there someway to add a list of valid formats?If not, should I write my own method to match that particlar format?
all i have is this. and its not working. i tried putting vbscript in javascript because vbscript isn't working with chrome.how to make the time running? like this time..
When I use the following script in my web page I do not get a print out. Can anyone tell me what is wrong?
<!-- Begin // Get today's current date. var now = new Date(); // Array list of days. var days = new Array('Sunday','Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday'); // Array list of months.
I have been checking out the calendar plugins and I was hoping I would find one in which I could display listed events during certain dates. For example, I have a web site for a divers club and we have events that happen on certain dates. I would like to have a calendar in which the user could click a certain date and something shows the user what is going on that day.
I am trying to add a calculated number of days to the current date. Here is my code:
Code:
var tempday=new Date(); var adddays=1+(7-tempday.getDay()); tempday.setDate(tempday.getDate()+adddays);
In this case I am calculating the number of days until the next Monday. Since today is Tuesday, it calculates 6 which is correct. The resulting date should be 11/1/2010. However, the month is not wrapping because the result is 10/1/2010. How do I fix this?
I have the following function that will subtract n number of days from todays date. The problem is that it always returns the the wrong calculate date. The month is wrong.
see if you can spot my mistake:
Code:
function returnDate(ndays){ var dayOfTheWeek = now.getDay(); now.setTime(now.getTime() - nDays * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000); alert(now); // returns current date alet(now.getYear() + "/"+now.getMonth()+"/"+now.getDate()) // returns new calculated date }
I am currently working on a calendar memo site for university, and I'm having a small problem. I have some code to validate a date put into a TextBox (day of month only. Month and Year are in drop down menus and are working fine), but whenever I try to click to validate it, I get the following error in Firebug:
QuotedayBox is not defined
And it points me towards the first part of my validation function. The code to get the TextBox displayed is in a Form HTML element and is:
function validate(calEvent) { Step 1: Check box is not empty. if (dayBox.length = "") { alert("Please enter a date")
[Code]....
The error occurs on the line "if (dayBox.length = "") {", right at the start of the function. It looks like the validate function is not recognising that there is a TextBox in the form called dayBox, but I can't see why.
I've implemented a script that shows the current time and date. The issue is when the users browser windows remains open, the time does not update every 60 seconds on the minute change etc. Is there a way to have the time/script reload to reflect the current script or would this be better suited to something server side?
I'm currently using the following script to generate today's date in a form. However it generates month and year separately. Our system works by coupling the month and year together (e.g. 03:2010)
I need to write the current date (dd/mm/yyyy) inside an input element like this Code:<input name="name" type="text" id="id" value="current date here"> I know this code can give me the current date, but i don't know how to write it in the input element
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- var currentTime = new Date() var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1 var day = currentTime.getDate() var year = currentTime.getFullYear() document.write(month + "/" + day + "/" + year) //--> </script>
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>
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 am new to this forum, so your help would be most appreciated.
I am trying to create a javascript where, on clicking a button, I will be able to download the latest log file. But the log filename changes everyday as it takes the current date as part of the filename. eg. EMEA_20070806 i.e. EMEA_yyyymmdd Also, the previous day's log file is stored in the same directory.
How can I create a button where it will download the latest log file at all times?
I need to create a calandar that highlights the current date.These are the functions, below is the html page.I am sure most of the problem is within the "for loop" script which I have highlighted.
function writeMonth(calendarDay, currentTime) { document.write("<table class='monthly_table'>"); writeMonthTitle(calendarDay);[code]....
