• CFINPUT DateField

  I have 2 CFINPUT DateField on the form, one is eaten early and one is dated of the end. Start Date is at the top of the end Date.

  The calendar Date start goes behind the end Date when users enter using control users start date is unable to use the calendar to enter start date date.

  I would like to know how I can control who start Date calendar in front of control end Date so that the user enters information.

  Your information and help is much appreciated,

  On the page, there is a demo; and when you click on the "View source" link at the bottom of the demo, you will see the demonstration code.

  On the right, there is a menu bar where you can see the other variants of the datepicker as date format, date range, etc.

• 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.

• validate cfinput using regular expressions

  Hello

  can someone help me valditing a field of cfinput using regular expressions?

  First digit must be a number or a 'R '.

  Figure 2-15 can be anything without special characters. Figure 2-15 can also be empty.

  I try this, but it does not work (sorry I'm a beginner using regex).

  < cfinput type = "text" name = "field1" required = "yes" validate = 'regular_expression' pattern = "[0 - 9Rr] [0 - 9a - zA - Z]" * "maxlength ="15">"

• 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,
  
  Gene

  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.

• ExtJS DateField and $a_report Apex 3.2

  All,
  
  I'm trying to call a function $a_report when my Datefield Extjs validates to true and update the region place my standard report.
  
  Below is the code for my DateField ExtJS and in the page header:
  
  < code >
  {Ext.onReady (function ()}
  var Els = Ext.select ("table.datepicker", true);
  {Els.each (Function (El)}
  Delete the datepicker class, to remove any style
  el.removeClass ('datepicker');
  Ext.Fly (El). Child('.datepicker').removeClass ('datepicker');
  
  remove the icon table cell
  El.Select ('td:even'). Remove();
  retrieve the date as a dom node element
  var dt = Ext.fly (el) .one ('input [type = text]', true);
  convert to date
  new Ext.form.DateField ({}
  ID: dt.id
  applyTo: dt,.
  'format':-j-A '.
  invalidClass: "ux-status-error."
  validateOnBlur: true,
  listeners: {}
  change: function() {}
  refreshEmp();
  }
  }
  'altFormats': 'j|j/n|j/n/y|j/n/Y|j-M|j-M-y|j-M-Y '.
  });
  })
  });
  
  < /script >
  < code >
  
  And here's the code for refreshEmp function I use to refresh the report. According to Firebug, it seems that refreshEmp is called, but the report does not take into account date and dealing with the null value.
  
  < script type = "text/javascript" > function refreshEmp() {$a_report (' #REGION_ID #'.substr (1)) ;} < /script >}

  The report is not taking the account date because you have not passed through to the database.

  I'm assuming that your report is something like:

  Select *.
  tables
  where dt =: P123_DATE

  What you need to do is to pass the date changed to the database by using an application process, the definition of the value: P123_DATE to the value of the new date.
  When this process completes successfully, then run the $a_report function to refresh the report.

• 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") #.

• Validate email address (check SMTP)

  Hello

  When a member joins our website, an email is sent confirming the registration. Few of them are non-existent email addresses.
  I would like to know if there is a way to validate an email address in coldfusion (check SMTP) without sending an email to the recipient so that we have legitimate email. This procedure is necessary to prevent our being on the list of spam IP. We have control of the string using regular expressions.

  Help much appreciated

  Thank you

  Mottakutty

  Oh hang on, hang on I got to use it:

  "I think you misunderstand, Adam" - Note the use of the comma

  OP - you say you want to do a check of SMTP (this means to connect to the mail server and verify that the account exists) but then talk about regular expressions to validate the string passed to you according to the RFC? It's two things.

  First to have as Adam said, you can validate the e-mail address using CFINPUT and once again on the server side using the isValid(). By the way, isValid ("email") is actually full of bugs, if you read the email address RFC, which unfortunately, I had only once.

  However if you really want to test whether or not address exists on the mail server, there is no way to do this using CF. you could (if you were clever enough to Java) write yourself some classes which collect MX records for a domain, and then telnet to it. Basis conversation SMTP would you:

  220 remoteserver.something.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service

  HELO yourdomain.com

  250 remoteserver.something.com Hello

  MAIL FROM:[email protected]

  250 2.1.0 [email protected]... Sender OK

  RCPT TO:[email protected]

  550 5.7.1 unable to relay for [email protected]

  Unless you get a 250 in response to your RCPT TO command, it is an invalid account.

  However.

  There really no need to go that far in order to validate the account. Much easier is to send an e-mail of confirmation with a link that you must click to verify their account.

  Sending e-mail to a non-existent address is * not * take you spam blocklists. The only thing that you is if you send email to one honeytrap put people like Messagelabs email accounts up. Nobody knows specifically what these are (because that would go against the point), but they are only ever affected if you just choose a domain name and to mass-mail each e-mail address prefix you can think of the hope of the sticks. Nobody will come to your website and enter one of these e-mail addresses.

  I suspect that you already do enough to make sure you aren't on blacklists. Usually you only end up one if your mail server sends spam, things are a lot smarter these days.

  How can validate the data entry in the form?

  Hi Venon69,

  You can use actionscript or cfscript for validation.
  He is a hard-coded example (txtDestination). You can use the string or any other types of data as your return instead of vacuum value.

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------

  
  audit of the public service (strSource): Void {}
  var txtDestination = txtDestination;
  Alert (strSource);
  If (strSource == "Apple") {}
  txtDestination.text = Yes, 'it's an Apple. "
  } else {}
  txtDestination.text = "not an Apple."
  }
  }
