• validate cfinput datefields

  I am a beginner and I'm looking how to validate the cfinput datefields, for example. How can you get the days, the months and the years of the flash form. What are the functions? Do you know how or where I can get this information? Thank you.

  I'll save you some time, Monique. I don't know that one you found, but what you're asking is all here in Djkhalif post, advance date of 90 days, when change in form , with permission of == cfSearching == - and yours truly.

• The TYPE of CFINPUT DATEFIELD = won't accept the date from the data base

  I had a weird problem which I think may be just a way to explain to the server how to interpret value. I use ColdFusion 8 with SQL SERVER 2005 Express. In my table, the field is a DATETIME field and the date with time (eg. 2007-07-23 00:00:00).
  
  In my form, when I added using the DATEFIELD as the CFINPUT type, it records the date correctly. But when I use the EDIT.cfm form and try to put the value of the database in the CFINPUT DATEFIELD, the server generates an error. Here is the error:
  
  2007-07-23 00:00:00 / 0 is an invalid date or time string.
  
  Of course, I tried many things but I tried to force the date with DATEFORMAT format (qGetNewsInfos.dtIssued, "mm/dd/yyyy '") and many other format but without success.
  
  Is he knows how to use a date in the case of a < CFINPUT TYPE = DATEFIELD >?

  Try dateformat yyyy-mm-dd.

• cfinput type dateField

  I have several fields in a form that are close together.
  I'm using CF8 and the format is html.
  I noticed that ajax popup calendar appears BEHIND the fields.
  How their dealing with all fields? Is there some attribute or type a property for me to do this in the cfinput dateField?
  
  Thanks in advance,

  I suspect that the most likely cause the value of z-index. Z - index is a CSS property. He determines the order of the stack of the an element in front of or behind the other. An element with a higher z-index will be stacked in front of a worth less. The default value is 0, for example, in the case you do not specify the index-z.

  To see the relevance to your case, open in Internet Explorer, a page containing only the form. View the source code. The Coldfusion engine automatically organizes the HTML code in the form into two main DIV blocks, each containing other DIVs. You'll notice that neither the two main blocs DIV a z-index in the style attribute. This means that they have the same z-index value, namely, the default value of 0.

  The calendar image above has the same value of z-index for the field at the bottom, namely, the default value of 0. One would naturally expect order of appearance would be the deciding factor. Apparently, the order of appearance is important in Mozilla but not in Internet Explorer. It seems that, if two elements have the same z-index, Internet Explorer can show the other side of the first.

• DateField &amp; amp; Validation

  I'm sure it can be done, but maybe a bit beyond my skill level...
  
  I am trying to use a cfinput datefield and want to limit the dates that the user can select. It cannot be before today, and it cannot be greater than X date (say 30 days from today ' hui.)
  
  Is there a validation = "" actionscript or something I can do with what it occurs? " Or what would be the best solution for this so that I can still use cfinput type = "datefield"?
  
  Thanks in advance for any suggestions/advice! :)

  AS works with dates in a format of millisecond, which means that this date of the day in such that appears as a number... the number of milliseconds between January 1, 1970 and now. Also, do not forget THAT to mean the month numbers starting with 0, not 1, so January is month 0.

  So, let's say you must check if a date is between now and Xdate. (which was my scenario). Here's how you do it... or at least, this is how I did, LOL

  You must be able to see your two dates, today and Xdate, separately from their values of month, day and year, so I put a few hidden these values fields.

  For my start date (today):

  
  
  
  
  
  

  For my end (xdate):

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Now the ACE for check date:

  
  var todayDate = new Date (myform.myyear, myform.mymonth, myform.todaydate, 0, 0, 0, 0);
  firstDate var = new Date (myform.myyear, myform.mymonth, myform.firstDate_Value, 0, 0, 0, 0);
  lastDate var = new Date (myform. LastYear, myform. LastMonth, myform. LastDay, 0, 0, 0, 0);
  var debDate = new Date (select_date.selectedDate);
  var displayLastDate = lastDate.toString ();
  If (firstDate > = debDate) {alert ("you cannot select a date prior to today.")}
  If (firstDate > = debDate) {select_date.selectedDate = todayDate}
  if(debDate > lastDate) {alert ("you cannot select a superior date ' + displayLastDate") ;}}
  If (debDate > lastDate) {select_date.selectedDate = todayDate}
  

  The code is not cleaned, some the DateAdd and DateFormat might have been merged a CFINPUT instead of a CFSET, then CFINPUT, but it seems to work ok, however. :)

  I hope it helps someone other too!

• So many problem with DATEFIELD

  I have problem to install the correct method to use CFINPUT DATEFIELD. When I am on a normal mode (which means for me that I'm not in a CFWINDOW), I found that I have to put my value in this format:
  
  DATEFORMAT (var, ' dd/mm/yyyy "")
  
  But it does not work inside my CFWINDOW. The system indicates that the date or time is invalid. The same variable (I'm dealing with a variable that represents a start date) working in the home page as it doesn't work in the CFWINDOW. Why? This TAG is very useful, should in fact be more standard from any point of view!
  
  If someone has an idea to help me understand what I need to change to make it work, please let me know! I'm in the middle of a bad situation, I'm not able in the CFWINDOW to use a JavaScript calendar (it works on a normal page, but I can't import the entire script in a CFWINDOW. It is certainly possible to copy - paste everything in these script in JavaScript files directly into the CFWINDOW, but it too expensive for what it values when the CFINPUT DATEFIELD should also work).
  
  I include all of the code for my CFWINDOW in case someone wants to analyze what I could hurt!

  I finally change my interface completely! I decided to go with philosophy step by step, I had a lot of problem to play with a single page to receive all the information and forms. ste-by-step method, I decided to use is involving a CFLAYOUT which is the change from the simple link AHREF (where I use images instead of text to be more elegant for the user), click. This actually help me to complete this part of the application (after 2 intensive days of investigation of bugs about the new features in CF8). I don't say that the problem is CF8, in a contrary, but be careful when you use the new tags because some combinations can be a nightmare to find the right way - not to say - it's not possible to be used in combination at all for some of them.

  Maybe my imagination is too much the main use of these new tags in CF8 but style concept and dynamic programming is for me something that should be on the edge of the expectations of the user and we should have no limit to achieve a very high level of automated style to built a strong interface today! But I admit that this programming in this kind of philosophy involved a degree high record of each elements used - this is the most difficult part because it is not so easy to find the information shortly!

• DateField not working not not in Coldfusion 11

  I installed just for CF11 on our servers QA and dev and make me a strange problem on one of them. On our QA server, instead of the control calendar showing upward when < cfinput type = "datefield" > is used, I get the text "date picker. I can't find anything about it on the help forums, so I was hoping that someone has met that I can't understand the question. What baffles me, is that it works very well on a single server with the same version of CF. thanks is advanced.

  Of course, just after I ask the question, I found the answer. The CFIDE virtual directory was never created for some reason any on my web server so I just had to add that in IIS and it works fine now.

• Change the selectable Dates in DateField

  Im trying to create a form of event where the datefield will only accept a date of a specific amount of dates to be fired.

  For example, something like this: If the date (today) is greater than the Monday of the 4th week of the month, (so for this month of February, it would be > 20th) then this month (would be nice if it also eliminated previous days that have already passed in the month) and next month is a available for select dates. Else (if less than the 4th week of the month, < 20 February) only this month (february) is a of dates that are available to be picked on.

  I was wondering how you can do this with a < cfinput type = "datefield > tag." I was able to come up with something, but don't know how to get out of here.

  Of CFSET

  < cfset subsist = Now() >

  < cfset NextMonth = DateAdd (', 1, subsist) / >

  < cfset nextMonthNum = daysInMonth(#NextMonth#) / >

  < cfset weekNum = (#weekOfMonth (now ()) #) / >

  < cfset daysNum = daysInMonth (now ()) / >

  < cfset dateToday = Now() >

  DateField

  < cfinput

  Type = "datefield".

  label = "date".

  mask = "d/mm/yy".

  name = 'activitydate '.

  value = "#dateAdd (would be ', now ()) + 1 ' # '"

  required = "yes".

  message = "Please select a valid Date for the event" / >

  That is, it checks for the amount of days and traverses them by giving the date range available at the beginning of the month.

  < cfscript >

  function weekOfMonth (thisDate) {}

  var thisDay = day (thisDate);

  var thisWeek = 0;

  If (thisDay LTE 7)

  thisWeek = 1;

  ElseIf (thisDay GT 7 AND thisDay LTE 14)

  thisWeek = 2;

  ElseIf (thisDay GT 14 AND thisDay LTE 21)

  thisWeek = 3;

  on the other

  thisWeek = 4;

  ThisWeek return;

  }

  < / cfscript >

  < cfif #DatePart('w', TheDate) # GTE 4 AND #weekNum # GTE 2 >

  True < br / >

  < cfloop index = 'x' from = "1" to = "#daysNum #" >

  < cfoutput >

  #DateFormat (now (), "mm") #/ #x #/ #DateFormat (now (), 'yy') # < br / >

  < / cfoutput >

  < / cfloop >

  < cfloop index = 'y' from = "1" to = "#nextMonthNum #" >

  < cfoutput >

  #DateFormat (NextMonth, "mm") #/ #y #/ #DateFormat (NextMonth, "yy") # < br / >

  < / cfoutput >

  < / cfloop >

  < cfelse >

  False < br / >

  < cfloop index = 'z' from = "1" to = "#daysNum #" >

  < cfoutput > (now (), "mm") #DateFormat #/ #z #/ #DateFormat (now (), 'yy') # < br / > < / cfoutput >

  < / cfloop >

  < / cfif >

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  I found this a difficult to express in the code requirement. I chose to do the simple way with cfselect. With cfselect, it is possible for the user to choose a date from a list including 2 consecutive months.

  Select a date

  #dateformat (dateValue, "ddd d mmm yyyy") #.

  #dateformat (dynamicDateValue, "ddd, dd mmm yyyy") #.

• Problem of time setting Date DateField

  Hello.  I know I posted simillar in the past but now encounter the problem with what I think is linked to time zone.

  When I use the following code to set the time and date in a DateField leave a string I get the inconsitent results...

  DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat ("YYYY/MM/dd HH: mm");
  java.util.Calendar d2 = java.util.Calendar.getInstance (TimeZone.getDefault ());
  String date = ' 11/11/2011-14:11.
  yy int = 0, mm = 0, SD = 0, h = 0, e = 0;
  mm = Integer.parseInt (date.substring (0, 2)) - 1; January = 0
  DD = Integer.parseInt (date.substring (3, 5));
  YY = Integer.parseInt (date.substring (6, 10));
  HR = Integer.parseInt (date.substring (11,13));
  MI = Integer.parseInt (date.substring (14.16));
  D2. Set (Calendar.YEAR, AA);
  D2. Set (Calendar.MONTH, mm);
  D2. Set (Calendar.DATE, dd);
  D2. Set (Calendar.HOUR, human resources);
  D2. Set (Calendar.MINUTE, mi);
  D2. Set (Calendar.SECOND, 00);
  D2. Set (Calendar.MILLISECOND, 00);
  D2.setTimeZone (TimeZone.GetDefault ());
  long t2 = d2.getTime () .getTime ();
  _dateField = new DateField ("", t2, df);
  Add (_dateField);

  So will string ' 11/11/2011-14:11 ' to the datefield causes the time spend at 2010-11-12 02:11.  I've set the default calendar time zone doe.  Not sure why this is now occurring.

  Ah my bad, given the first bit and skips the rest! It is possible that you are using the TIME instead of HOUR_OF_DAY

• Allowing the datePicker on a DateField

  I develop with JDE 4.7 and I wanted to add a DateField to one of my screens. When looking at the API I came across this method called enableDatePicker which was added in version 4.7. It looked interesting so I wanted to try, but when I call the method, it throws a NullPointerException.

  DateField date = new DateField();  date.enableDatePicker(true);
  

  Maybe it was completely did not implemented yet. What exactly is the method supposed to do?

  Any help will be appreciated.

  I was able to reproduce this and it will be sent to our development team.  You can call this method after the DateField has aired on a screen and the NullPointerException is not thrown.

• DateField with a maximum limit of date

  Hello

  How to set a maximum limit of date in a datefield. That is, user will not be able to choose the date that exceeds the maximum limit.

  You have determined and as suggested earlier in this thread, DateField does not provide a maximum or minimum you have to apply this restriction externally, using a FieldChangeListener or another control mechanism.  So, I think you can mark this as resolved.

• DateField, HorizontalFieldManager + ObjectChoiceField = error

  I am creating a page layout so that there a datefield and objectchoicefield in the horizontalfieldmanger even, and it throws me illegalarguementexception every time. Can someone help me? Here is the code example.

  HFM HorizontalFieldManager = new HorizontalFieldManager();
  HFM. Add (new DateField ("Some Text:", Date () .getTime (new),))
  DateFormat.getInstance (DateFormat.TIME_DEFAULT)));

  HFM. Add (new ObjectChoiceField ("", new String [] {"some", "text"}));
  Add (HFM);

  The problem here is that the DateField occupies the entire width.  The ObjectChoiceField then try to deal itself.  He seems to be referring to the treatment of layout of a RichTextField and pass the width that it must work, and the string to be converted (in this case, it is "a little").  RichTextField barfs with an Exception, because there is no way that 'some' can fit in the space provided (-1 pixel).

  To get this working, you have to find a way to limit bandwidth claiming the DateField.  I thought you'd be able to do by indicating the field to put his time left (style == DateField.FIELD_LEFT, but which did not work, so I went back to my usual substitutions and created what follows, that works.)

  You can take it from here?

  HFM HorizontalFieldManager = new HorizontalFieldManager();
  HFM. Add (new DateField ("Some Text:", System.currentTimeMillis (),))
  {DateFormat.getInstance (DateFormat.TIME_DEFAULT))}
  public int getPreferredWidth() {}
  Return to 150;
  }
  Protected Sub layout (int width, int height) {}
  Super.Layout (getPreferredWidth (), height);
  }
  });
  HFM. Add (new ObjectChoiceField ("", new String [] {"some", "text"}));
  Add (HFM);
