JavaScript - How Change The Format Of Selected Date From Calendar?
I have a calendar and when selecting the date the date format inserted to text box is in the format ' 10/10/2010'. This is not getting inserted into oracle database. Oracle accepts only the format '10-OCT-10' . So please help me to change the format of date that getting selected from calendar.

I'm using it in flat mode so that it can be displayed statically on the page. What I can't seem to work out is how to retrieve the selected date once clicked on. I need to be able to print the output in dd/mm/yyyy format, either on screen or in an alert or something similar. If anyone has worked with this calendar and knows how to do it, or can sort it, I'd appreciate it greatly. I can't paste code here as it's too long, but the source code on the site linked above is exactly the same as I'm using. Cheers! Hi All, I have a snippet of Javascript that changes date format from yyyy/mm/dd to dd/mm/yyyy: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var myString = "[[date]]"; var mySplitResult = myString.split("-");document.write(mySplitResult[2] + "/" + mySplitResult[1] + "/" + mySplitResult[0] ); </script> However, I want it to return the format as dd/mm/yy (the last two number of the year rather than the full four). Is this possible to do? Thanks, Neil I have a database script that returns dates in the following format: yyyy-mm-dd I have been using the following code to change this format to dd-mm-yyyy: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var myString = "[[date]]"; var mySplitResult = myString.split("-");document.write(mySplitResult[2] + "/" + mySplitResult[1] + "/" + mySplitResult[0] ); </script> However, I now want to display the date in text format, e.g. 01-08-2009 would be displayed as 01 August 2009. Could anyone please let me know how I change the script to show this format? Many thanks in advance, Neil Hello I am trying to change the default date format within my date picker, but nothing I do seems to work. This is the relevant Code: Code: $(function() { Date.format = 'yy-mm-dd'; $('#popupDatepicker').datepick(); }); <p><b>Date Of Birth:</b><input type="text" name="dob" id="popupDatepicker"><br> All I see is dd/mm/yy no matter what I change I need it in a format suitable for MySQL Thanks like for example i have text areas named upload1 and upload2 when I click or add input on upload1 a drop down list below upload2 will not change, but when I add input on upload2 the dropdown will select "parts" I have a drop down menu where people can select a month, day and year. Based on their selection, I want to show them an image. If their selection is >= July 26, 2010 but <= July 25, 2011, show the red image; If their selection is >= July 26, 2011 but <= July 25, 2012, show the white image; If their selection is >= July 26, 2012 but <= July 25, 2013, show the blue image; If their selection is >= July 26, 2013 but <= July 25, 2014, show the yellow image; I don't know how to compare a selected date to a range of dates like this. Hi, I need to add days to a date in javascript, My requirement is as follows: Date is coming from a textbox. eg:- 26/07/2010 days from this statement var day1=document.getElementById('<%=HiddenDate.ClientID %>').value; an eg:- if the date is 28/01/2012 and days Needed to be added=5 the added date should be 02/02/2012. Can anybody help me? Thanks Jamuna Hey all i have this piece of code before that disables the given dates i put into an array. This works great for day 2-30 (out of a 31 day month) but it does not seem to work when i select either day 1 or day 31. For day 1 it blocks out day 1 and i do not want that. The user should be able to select that day since it was selected. It does not do this for any other day. If the user selects day 2 then day 2 is selected on the calender and is not blocked. As for day 31, i don't know whats wrong with it because it never shows me an error. It's the type of error that shuts down the website with "System Unavailable" for about a minute before i can connect to the page again. Here is my code: Code: var disabledDays = ['3-31-2010','3-30-2010','3-29-2010','3-28-2010','3-27-2010','3-26-2010','3-25-2010','3-24-2010','3-23-2010','3-22-2010','3-21-2010','3-20-2010','3-19-2010','3-18-2010','3-17-2010','3-16-2010','3-15-2010','3-14-2010','3-13-2010','3-12-2010','3-11-2010','3-10-2010','3-9-2010','3-8-2010','3-7-2010','3-6-2010','3-05-2010']; function nationalDays(date) { var m = date.getMonth(), d = date.getDate(), y = date.getFullYear(); //console.log('Checking (raw): ' + m + '-' + d + '-' + y); for (i = 0; i < disabledDays.length; i++) { if(ArrayContains(disabledDays,(m+1) + '-' + d + '-' + y) || new Date() > date) { //console.log('bad: ' + (m+1) + '-' + d + '-' + y + ' / ' + disabledDays[i]); return [false]; } } //console.log('good: ' + (m+1) + '-' + d + '-' + y); return [true]; } function noWeekendsOrHolidays(date) { return nationalDays(date); } function ArrayIndexOf(array,item,from){ var len = array.length; for (var i = (from < 0) ?

David Hello, I am a newbie to this forum. I have searched for the problem that I have in this forum but found none. I am creating a calendar using html/css and javascript.

Thanks for all your time and support. kvkt Hello everyone, I am creating a small application for my memory book. I want to have one of those calendars like in Here .. that would retutn values like: day month year - seperatelly that I could use in php. Im looking for easy solution if there is one.. Simple and short script Kind regards, Aurimas Hi, I have 2 calendars using jquery UI datepicker. The first calendar is default to todays date. What I need to happen is for the second calendar default date to change to default date (of first calendar) + 1 day. I'm really not too sure how to do this... So any help would be great! This is the code I have so far: [CODE] $(document).ready(function(){ $("#startDate").datepicker({ dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy" }).val() $('#startDate').datepicker('setDate', new Date()); }); $(document).ready(function(){ $("#endDate").datepicker({ dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy" }).val() }); $('#startDate').datepicker({onSelect: function(dateStr) { $('#endDate').datepicker('option', 'defaultDate', dateStr); }}); $('#endDate').datepicker(); [/ICODE] Hi, 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). Code: </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var todaysDate = new Date(); function updateExpiryDate(){ var weeklyMileage = document.getElementById('AvWeeklyMileage').value; var expiryDate; var weeks = 0; var expiryDateString = ''; if (!isNaN(parseInt(weeklyMileage))){ weeks = 700/weeklyMileage; expiryDate = new Date(todaysDate.getTime() + (1000 * 3600 * 24 * 7 * weeks)); var expiryDateString = expiryDate.getDate() + '/' + getMonthString(expiryDate.getMonth()+1) + '/' + expiryDate.getFullYear(); document.getElementById('expiryDate').innerHTML = expiryDateString; document.getElementById('ShoeExpiryDate').value = expiryDateString; } else { document.getElementById('ShoeExpiryDate').value = ''; document.getElementById('expiryDate').innerHTML = 'Please enter a valid weekly average mileage' } } function getMonthString(monthNumber){ var monthString = ""; switch(monthNumber){ case 1: monthString = "01"; break; case 2: monthString = "02"; break; case 3: monthString = "03"; break; case 4: monthString = "04"; break; case 5: monthString = "05"; break; case 6: monthString = "06"; break; case 7: monthString = "07"; break; case 8: monthString = "08"; break; case 9: monthString = "09"; break; case 10: monthString = "10"; break; case 11: monthString = "11"; break; case 12: monthString = "12"; break; default: // do nothing; } return monthString; } function setTodaysDate(){ var todaysDateString = todaysDate.getDate() + '/' + getMonthString(todaysDate.getMonth()+1) + '/' + todaysDate.getFullYear(); document.getElementById('todaysDate').innerHTML =todaysDateString; document.getElementById('DateOfPurchase').value = todaysDateString; } Can someone point me in the right direction please? Hello! First of all, sorry my bad english. (and javascripting skills...) I have a problem with date formatting! My code is supposed to get the day of the week from date format like dd.mm.yyyy (01.01.2010, 31.12.2010) but it only works if date format is like "28 December, 2000". Code is he Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function getTheDay(aText) { myDays=["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"] myDate=new Date(eval('"'+aText.value+'"')) document.form1.textDay.value=myDays[myDate.getDay()] } </script> <form name="form1" id="form1" method="post" action="" enctype="text/plain"> <input type="text" name="textDate" id="textDate" value="" size="25" onchange="getTheDay(this.form.textDate)" /> <br /> <input type="text" name="textDay" size="25" maxlength="25" /> </form> Original code: http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_d...ript/time2.htm Can anyone help me? I have tried everything what i have find from google... Thanks to you all who help me with this! -Roosterr Hello. I have got this kind of array: Code: $days = array('Monday' => '2012-03-19', 'Tuesday' => '2012-03-20' ); I'm iterating like this: Code: foreach($days as $key => $value){ echo '<a href="javascipt:confirmDelete('.$value.');">Delete</a>'; } Script: Code: function confirmDelete(day) { if (confirm('Delete?')) { window.location.href = 'processDay.php?action=delete&day=' + day ; } } While i hover over the link with coursor, it show it good: javascript:confirmDelete(2012-03-19), but when I submit the delete confirmation, i get &day=1987. Where is the problem? Alright so I've been searching around trying to figure out how to change the date format, the way I have seen it the most is like Code: var d=new Date(); var datestring=d.getdate + d.getMonth + d.get Year I am new to javascript and this is the first script I have written on my own so this is what it does. It is supposed to display the date that a shipment should arrive on with 2 day shipping through ups so it skips weekends. It displays the date after either adding 2 days or more depending on the day of the week. But the way the date is formatted really needs to be changed. So if any one can suggest maybe how to tie in the above code with mine that would be great. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var d=new Date(); var day=d.getDay(); if (day <= 3){ d.setDate (d.getDate() + 2); } else if (day == 4) { d.setDate (d.getDate() + 4) } else if (day == 5){ d.setDate (d.getDate() + 4); } else if (day == 6) { d.setDate (d.getDate() + 3); } document.write("Your card should arrive on " + d); </script> I've been trying to change the way a date appears. The JS gives the date Easter will fall in a particular year. That works but the format that appears is this; Sun Apr 24 00:00:00 EDT 2011 I'm trying to get it to read like this: Sunday, April 24, 2011 I've been racking my brain all morning and can't seem to get it right. Very limited experience in JS doesn't help either. Could somebody take a look and see where I messed up. Thanks in advance. George Code: easterYear = 2011; var a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, k, l, m, easterMonth, easterDate; a = parseInt(easterYear % 19); b = parseInt(easterYear / 100); c = parseInt(easterYear % 100); d = parseInt(b / 4); e = parseInt(b % 4); f = parseInt((b + 8) / 25); g = parseInt((b - f + 1) / 3); h = parseInt((19 * a + b - d - g + 15) % 30); i = parseInt(c / 4); k = parseInt(c % 4); l = parseInt((32 + 2 * e + 2 * i - h - k) % 7); m = parseInt((a + 11 * h + 22 * l) / 451); easterMonth = parseInt((h + l - 7 * m + 114) / 31); easterDate = parseInt(((h + l - 7 * m + 114) % 31) + 1); var dayName = new Array ("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday", "Thursday","Friday","Saturday"); var monthName=new Array ("January","February","March","April","May", "June","July","August","September","October", "November","December"); var now = new Date(); var gplMonth = monthName[easterMonth-1]; var gplDay = dayName[0]; //gplDay ; var gplDate = new Date(); var gplDt = gplDate.getDate(); document.write(new Date(easterYear , easterMonth - 1, easterDate) ); // Original line document.write('<br />' ) document.write( gplDay + ", " + gplMonth + " " + easterDate + ", " + easterYear) document.write('<br />' ) document.write(gplMonth + " " + easterDate ) document.write('<br />' ) Hello, I would like to learn if there is way to change a different format every time the user want as example is Code: London 12:00:33 - Friday 18/03/2011 Thanks Hello, I am using jQuery to set a cookie and the expiration date is: Code: date.setTime(date.getTime() + (options.expires * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)); which lasts for 1 day, but I would like the cookie to not expire for a long time, is this possible? I know google has one that like expires in 2035 or something but I would like this on to last long. What should I do? I'm not too sure 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? Many thanks David |
