Hello,

i have a calendar-field created.
There i want some restriction, but i got error or it dont work, like i thought.
There i try to explain, and what i have done... so i hope you will say, what ia have done wrong :-(
echo '
<script type="text/javascript">                                        
    JQuery(document).ready(function () {                             
        JQuery("#ff_elem614_calendarButton").pickadate({
			editable: false,
			format: "dd.mm.yyyy", 
			min: new Date("21.03.2021");,
			selectMonths: true,
			selectYears: true
			onSet: function() {JQuery("#ff_elem614").val(this.get("value"));}
		});
    });
</script>
';

what i want:

1.) i want, that the user is NOT able to enter valuedata by hand, only by the picker
2.) i want to get selecting years, but only this year and the next year - the restriction is not implemented but should impletented in future.
3.) i want a min-value: Like the way above... i dont work. i tried other valuedata like min: "21.03.2021" or some other way, i dont work :-(
4.) also i want to enter the min max values automatic and not by hand... so somewhere i want to create a variable $today or this year and use it in the restrictions. on which position i should create this variable and by what script (php or Javascript or JQuery)?


Note:
  • the elem614 i got by Chrome - F12 and it is right :-)
  • I entered the code in the form-option - more - initialize form-area as a special-code

Thank you for helping

Hi,

1) make this field readonly

Go to your form->Advanced->More options->Script->Initialization script->check Custom and put:
function ff_formaname_init()
{
ff_getElementByName('calendarname').readOnly=true;
} // ff_formname_init
Please replace formname with name of your form (not title), and calendarname with name of your responsive calendar (not title).

2) selectYears: 2,
will show 2021,2022 and 2023

but selectYears: 1,
will show only 2021

3) min: new Date(2021,2,21),
min date is 21.3.2021
month is calculated from 0 to 11 and that is the reason why 2 is for March

The code in before form pieces looks like:
echo '<script type="text/javascript">
		JQuery(document).ready(function () {
					
			JQuery("#ff_elem5030_calendarButton").pickadate({
				format: "dd.mm.yyyy", 
				selectYears: 2, 
			        min: new Date (2021, 2, 21),
				selectMonths: true,
				editable: false,
				firstDay: 1,
				onSet: function() {JQuery("#ff_elem5030").val(this.get("value"));}
			});
                    });
	</script>';
Please replace #ff_elem5030 with ID of your calendar (right click to browser->Inspect->find ID for calendar).

Let me know if you need more help

Tihana

Thank you... i works fine, but i dont want to enter the date by hand.
i want to get it automatical and enter it als min or max.

maybe:
var heute = new Date();
var year = heute.getFullYear();
var month = heute.getMonth();
var day = heute.getDay();
var nextyear = year +1;

and after that enter the value min:
min: (year,month-1,day);
max: (nextyear,11,31);

But this dont work.
Do i missunderstand the system?

Have i create the date by Javascript or by PHP`?

Hi,

- automatic date (e.g you don't want to pick date today date should be displayed)??
If you want to this, then you can use javascript, and I will help you with the code

Basically, min and max date you can add in responsive calendar as I added it in message above for min date

Waiting for your feedback

hello,
i have to create a form for sending holiday-planing.So i have to create the first day (maybe like something like that):
firstday_min = today + 1;
fristday_max = new date(year(today) + 1, 11, 31);
lastday_min = today +2;
lastday_max = new Date(year(today) + 1, 11, 31);
so i can use the same value of today and the corresponding values (lastday of next year, tomorrow, overtomorrow, ...) at different positions in form creation.

but i understand... the value-date-creation is done by javascript... then i could see the javascript docu of date... so i could create it (i hope ) :-P

Thank you

Hi,

sorry for late reply, I had day off.

If you are using responsive calendar, there you can't add firstday_min, only min, max for configuration of calendar in before form pieces.

Also, here are the docs for responsive calendar:
amsul.ca/pickadate.js/date/#limits

Hope this helps

Regards,
Tihana
