JavaScript - How To Get Local Time In Dd-mm-yyyy Format ?

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

Hi-
I am new to this so, please forgive me in advance...

goldDaysArray[3] = new Date();
goldDaysArray[3].setFullYear(2010,01,01);
goldDaysArray[4] = new Date();
goldDaysArray[4].setFullYear(2010,01,03);
goldDaysArray[5] = new Date();
goldDaysArray[5].setFullYear(2010,01,22);
goldDaysArray[6] = new Date();
goldDaysArray[6].setFullYear(2010,01,09);

Can the three .setFullYear statements be combined into one, so I can reduce the number of statements? There are many more. I tried:
goldDaysArray[3] = new Date();
goldDaysArray[3].setFullYear(2010,01,[01,03,22,09]);

but February 1 was not recognized.

Can someone please help?

Thank you.

Hi

Code:

var err_str="";
function validate_grid(value,id,ind)
{
 $("#result").html(" ").show();
 if(ind==1 || ind==2)
  {
  var patt=/^([0][0-9]|[1][0-9]|[2][0-3])[:]{1}[0-5][0-9]$/;
  if(!patt.test(value))
   {
	mygrid.setCellTextStyle(id,ind,"background-color:yellow;");
	if(err_str!="")
		err_str+="\n"+(ind+1)+".Enter numbers and : only..";
	else
		err_str=(ind+1)+".Enter numbers and : only";
	return false;
   }
    else
      {
	mygrid.setCellTextStyle(id,ind,"background-color:white;");
	return true;
      }
  }
}
alert(err-str);

here ind==1 is from_time and ind==2 is to_time,i need to validate time as to_time must be always greater than from-time,if condition fails an alert msg should populate.time format is[05:00]as it is in string format im unable to do the validation for it.(ex:from-time=08:00 to-time=07:59 condition fails)

thank you.

I do have the countdown script (see link below) to display the time between current time and the date given in real-time.

However, I want to achieve to display the time difference between a given start and end time. Right now, it calculates from the current server time to the end time.

I want to be able to set up my own start time and end time.

Here is what I have:

thank you for help

I'm not really a Java writer, so I don't know how to do this myself, though I imagine it would be pretty simple.
I am looking to add a script to a webpage that allows users to input a time manually, and have it converted to GMT/Zulu time and display the converted time. I have seen a lot of time zone conversion scripts online, but they all just convert whatever the current system time is to another time zone. I am looking for a script that allows users to convert a time and show the zulu time, for times other than the current time. The time zone the inputed local time would be in is +4:30 (Kabul). I don't really care about style or aestehtics, just a simple script I can insert into a web page to have a time input field. The converted output time can appear in another field, a popup bubble, etc, again style isn't really an issue. It's really just to help people in my job who need to know what the GMT/Zulu time was for certain local times after the fact. One would think it shouldn't be that hard to just subtract 4:30 in your head, but apparently it is.

Sorry if just asking for code outright like this is frowned upon.

hi,

can some one help me how to get the time and date difference? given two time and date with the following format like in textbox A: 2011-05-03 17:35:47.0 and textbox B: 2011-05-03 16:35:47.0 then the output would be: 0 days, 1 hour, 0 minutes, 0 seconds

regards,
verve

This is my first time doing JavaScript I don't what I did wrong here, but the problem its not showing up the current date and time.
Code:

<script language = "JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> 
now = new Date(); 
localtime = now.toString();
 utctime = now.GMTString();
 document.wite("<b>localtime</b>" + localtime + "</br>");
 document.write("<b>utctime</b>" + utctime); 
 </script>

This is what supposed to look like


I have tried using different browser chrome,IE9,Maxtor, and Opera my OS is Win7

Hello,

Wondering if any users could point me in the right direction on this one.
Newbie question, how do I call up a local Var within a function?

As you can see I have both a global and a local. but the doc.write will only show the global var.

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript"> 

var p=0;

function test(){

p=p+5;
window.alert(p);
}
</script>
</head>

<body>

<h1>test: <script type="text/javascript"> document.write(p); </script> </h1>

<br>
<input type="Button" value="Add" onclick="test()" />

</body>
</html>

Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Hello, I am reading a block of code online and I don't understand why the output i in "Checking the value of: i " is always 5.

Code:

var someArray = [1,2,3,4,5],
	len = someArray.length,
	i = 0;

var count = 0;

for ( ; i < len; i++ ) {
	setTimeout(function() {
		console.log( count++ === i, 'Checking the value of: ' + i );
	}, i * 300);
}

This will produce output below in console.log:

Code:

false Checking the value of: 5
false Checking the value of: 5
false Checking the value of: 5
false Checking the value of: 5
false Checking the value of: 5

The tutorial says the code will only render the final value in the sequence: 5 but not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 as I would expect in the for loop. Could someone explain this to me. Thanks very much.

.... [Edit] I have moved this thread to resolved since it cannot work the way I want it to (couldn't find a delete button). The variable in question is overwritten each time the function is called and there is no way to cache it globally. I will have to figure something else out for this one. Thank you to those that took a look anyway.....

Ok, here is what I have. I am trying to fix up a calculator script that I found online to add a bit more intuitive function to it. I want to use this script but it irritates me the way it is. It's a simple enough script, which is why I want to use it, but I want to be able to use keyboard keys with it (instead of clicking buttons. Here's the HTML:

Code:

<FORM NAME="Calc">
<TABLE BORDER=4>
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Input" id="Input" Size="26">
<br>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="one"   VALUE="  1  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '1'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="two"   VALUE="  2  " OnCLick="Calc.Input.value += '2'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="three" VALUE="  3  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '3'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="plus"  VALUE="  +  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += ' + '">
<br>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="four"  VALUE="  4  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '4'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="five"  VALUE="  5  " OnCLick="Calc.Input.value += '5'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="six"   VALUE="  6  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '6'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="minus" VALUE="  -  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += ' - '">
<br>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="seven" VALUE="  7  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '7'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="eight" VALUE="  8  " OnCLick="Calc.Input.value += '8'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="nine"  VALUE="  9  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '9'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="times" VALUE="  x  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += ' * '">
<br>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="clear" VALUE="  C  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value = ''">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="zero"  VALUE="  0  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += '0'">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="DoIt"  VALUE="  =  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value = eval(Calc.Input.value)">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="div"   VALUE="  /  " OnClick="Calc.Input.value += ' / '">
<br>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

Now, what I am trying to fix is the fact that the enter key does not "emulate" the "=" sign button. I did some research and got the following KeyCode script:

Code:

document.onkeyup = KeyCheck;

function KeyCheck(e) {

if (document.Calc.Input.value != "") {
var formVal = document.Calc.Input.value;
}

var KeyID = (window.event) ? event.keyCode : e.keyCode;
if (KeyID == 13) {
	alert (formVal);
	document.getElementById("Input").value = eval(formVal);
}
}

The only key I am concerned with is the enter key (code 13) so i figured I could just fire a statement when that key was detected, however my "formVal" variable seems to disappear after the first if statement.

The reason for the first if statement is to keep the "fromVal" variable from being overwritten when the enter key is pressed.

As it stands now, the alert box and the form input box display "undefined" when the enter key is pressed. What am I missing here?

Hello,

I am working on a project using HTML and javascript to allow the user to choose a vehicle from a drop down menu, then load a new page showing some information about this vehicle. The information is stored in an Excel file. I posted regarding this issue a while back and got an excellent response from Old Pedant (thanks again!) about using ActiveX - which has thus far worked perfectly. My initial condition was that I would only be using IE7+. However, my next idea was to be able to use it on an IPad (which I unfortunately do not own yet, making any kind of testing difficult) which I am fairly certain ActiveX won't work on. So, I was looking for any other method which would be similar.

Important note: this will not use the internet at all, all of these files will be available locally. There is a lot of material on running queries to servers, but I didn't think that would really apply here. It seems pretty clear that JS has difficulty accessing files client side (which I understand why completely), but I was hoping to find something that worked for the gray zone I'm currently working in since I'm not using servers at all.

I know that this is not really the intended use of HTML/JS, but I was hoping that by writing it as an HTML file, it'd be accessible to anyone with a browser. Some of my target computers have odd limitations (such as not being to download .exe files).

The code I based my original off of is shown below:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

var conn = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open ( 'Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\full\path\to\MyExcel.xls;Extended Properties="Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";)';

var sql = "SELECT * FROM [nameOfSheet$]";
var rs = conn.execute( sql )
while ( ! rs.eof ) 
{
    // just an example of dumping everything from the sheet out to the browser:
    for ( var f = 0; f < rs.fields.count; ++f )
    {
        document.write( rs.fields(f).value + "," );
    }
    document.write("<br>\n");
    rs.moveNext();
}

rs.close();
conn.close();
</script><script type="text/javascript">

var conn = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open ( 'Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\full\path\to\MyExcel.xls;Extended Properties="Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";)';

var sql = "SELECT * FROM [nameOfSheet$]";
var rs = conn.execute( sql )
while ( ! rs.eof ) 
{
    // just an example of dumping everything from the sheet out to the browser:
    for ( var f = 0; f < rs.fields.count; ++f )
    {
        document.write( rs.fields(f).value + "," );
    }
    document.write("<br>\n");
    rs.moveNext();
}

rs.close();
conn.close();
</script>

I run Windows 7 and IE9, and I believe IE9 supports HTML5 Local Storage. But when I run this offline (locally) in IE9

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

function testSupport() {  
if (localStorage)  {return "Local Storage: Supported"}
else  {
return "Local Storage: NOT supported";  
}
} 

alert ( testSupport() );
</script>

I get "LocalStorage: NOT supported".

Chrome returns "Local Storage: Supported"

My DOCTYPE is <!DOCTYPE html>


Other tests also fail in IE. Example:

Code:

localStorage.setItem("name", "Hello World!"); 
alert(localStorage.getItem("name"));

Above works in Chrome.
Any advice, please? Have I not configured IE9 properly?

Hi all. I have text area that includes the full path for a local file on our company network. The files are usually excel sheets or docs. How can I have it so when they clicks the file it opens the local file?
