Is there a way to put 2 calendar fields one after the other? ie. arrival and departure date for instance, I am able to set the arrival but how do I trigger a secondary date on the same form?

I have the follow situation:
1 - A form with 2 tabs using the calendar, if i open the calendar in the active tab, a select-box in the hidden tab dissapears,
but when i close the calendar and select the tab, that was hidden, a select-box contained in that tab does't appear again!

for some reason when i click a date on the flat calendar its one month behind.

this sample calendar is the same way
http://www.dynarch.com/demos/jscalendar/simple-2.html

however, the one on this page is not
http://www.dynarch.com/demos/jscalendar/

any ideas? seems only to be the calendars that submit to the URL.

I am wondering if anyone has created select element call back. What I would like is to offer select elements for a user to fill in the date, with the calendar menu on the right if they want to use it, in the typical way you see for example on airline reservation systems. I would also like that select element for the time.

Has anyone created a modification to the onClick handler to handle this?

Thank you.

I'm playing with the calendar and I'm looking for a way to have the calendar widget return a 'blank' value...

Basically, I have a field that is not user editable where the date is held. Once the date is added, there doesn't seem to be a way to make it blank using the calendar control. I don't really want to have to add a new button to delete the field value at each field.

Any suggestions ? Thanks !

This is my first time using this control. I keep getting the following js error when I call showCal()...

Line: 1324
Error: "this.element.style" is null or not an object.

The line in calendar.js is: this.element.style.display = "block";

My code is just: showCal(document.frm.txtDate); and i can get the value of the textbox from js so I know it's valid.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Jim

I am presently attempting to make an interactive calendar which displays additional info when a date is highlighted and pressed. I am currently using the following code:

function dateChanged(calendar) {

if (calendar.dateClicked) {
var y = calendar.date.getFullYear();
var m = calendar.date.getMonth();
var d = calendar.date.getDate();
var link;
link = "http://someplace.com/Calendar/" + y + m + d + ".shtml";
PopItUp(link)
}

};

Calendar.setup(
{
flat : "calendar-container", // ID of the parent element
flatCallback : dateChanged // our callback function
}
);
function PopItUp(url)
{
newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=305,width=300');
if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
return false;
}

I guess it would be pretty tedious to attempt to make a html page for each date. So basically, is there a way to return a universal html page for all dates that do not have any additional info? Also, I was reading on a past post on how to make non-selectable dates, but it seems to me that the code only considers one range. How would I make multiple ranges (for example, non-selectable dates from Jan. 1 - 16. Additional info on Jan. 17. Non-selectable dates from Jan. 18 - 24...etc.)? Thanks.

I'm trying to adapt The DHTML Calendar for use with Textpattern which has separate form fields for year, month, day, hour, and minute. Can I have The Calendar output to the separate fields all at once? If so, how do I do it?

Thanks for such a cool calendar!

I am using your calender in a web based application.

I am trying to hide and show calender popup based on a js validation. I am using the default calender.setup ie

<script type="text/javascript">
Calendar.setup({
inputField : "letterDate_1", // id of the input field
ifFormat : "%d-%b-%Y", // format of the input field
button : "calenderIcon_1", // trigger for the calendar (button ID)
align : "Bl", // alignment (defaults to "Bl")
singleClick : true
});
</script>

The validation js occurs somewhere else. I am using a Icon instead of a button for the user to click. Is there a way I can call that particular obj and call its method hide()?

The documentation states that you can highlight specific "special" dates using this function (Calendar.setDateStatusHandler, reference number 4.3.8), although you have to define the CSS class that you return. How do you define a CSS class? Do you have to make an entirely new sheet or do you just add the appropriate style tags to an existing CSSsheet? Or can you define the class in your existing HTML document? Also, the documentation has the following code:

if (dateIsSpecial(y, m, d)) return ' ' special ' ';

is this four single quotes (' ' special ' ') or is it supposed to be two double quotes ("special")?

I am assuming that this is where the special CSS sheet is supposed to be passed, but I am having a tough time making it work. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would need to open tha calendar when passing the mouse over an icon instead of having to click on it.
I tried the Calendar.show() function... but I get an error saying that this unction doesn't exist.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Hello,

I use the calendar to enter a start and an end date. Often users enter an end date which is earlier than the start date. How can I adjust the end date calendar so that the user can't enter a date which is before the start date (and only if it is just entered)?
