Hi,

another little problem.

I need to compare to different date-types.

Tihana (now in vacation) has been so cute to make me this code as a gift:

function calcDaysOfYear() {
var now=new Date(ff_getElementByName('nameoftextfieldforcalendar').value);
var start=new Date(now.getFullYear(), 0, 0);
var diff = now - start;
var oneDay = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
var day = Math.floor(diff / oneDay);
ff_getElementByName('nameoftextfieldforcountdayofyear').value=day;
}

It works fine. But for variable "now" I need to transform my stored date (in the format "dd.MM.yyyy", no textfieldforcalendar) to a date-format like "newDate()".

Tried a lot of code in forums but didnt succeed. "SimpleDateFormat" doesnt work.

Hope for another smart code or help

Hi,

I will help you, could you please send me the backend link and access data by email ma@evolutio.hr please write the name of the FORM, too, so I can see logic of the function.

Let me know!

Hi Mirko,

thanks for replying.

I coded a solution.
Just looking for a oneliner to convert a string "dd.MM.yyyy".

Actually I did it with:

//Anreisedatum in Datumsformat wandeln
var zanreise=ff_getElementByName('anreise').value;
xanreise=(zanreise.substr(6,4)+"/"+zanreise.substr(3,2)+"/"+zanreise.substr(0,2));
xanreise=xanreise+" 0:0:1 GMT+0200";
const now = new Date(xanreise);
var anreisetag = now;
var jahresersttag=new Date(now.getFullYear(), 0, 0);
var diff = anreisetag - jahresersttag;
var oneDay = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
var day = Math.floor(diff / oneDay);
ff_getElementByName('einnahmen_dusche').value=day;

}

No access or sourcecode to our site needed

Thanks. Regards. jurgen
