no past dates allowed


I updated the calendar so that a user cannot select dates in the past. Note that it doesn't take into account time at all, b/c my application didn't need that.

To do this, I made a few changes:

1. in calender2.js, i made a new property for the calendar object called "past_dates". You can set it to true/false on the calling page just like you do with year scrolling and time_comp.

2. in calendar.html, I check the value of the "past_dates" property, and if it's false, then I do not print the previous month scroll (if it's the current month), and I do not print out the link for days in the past (the day is still there obviously, but it's just not linked)

Here's a relevant chunk of code from calender.html

One important piece not shown is where i "zero-out" the time component of today's date so that the date arithmatic shown below works out right.

Code:

// if it's today or a future date allow it to be selected
if ((obj_caller && obj_caller.past_dates) || dt_current_day - dt_today >= 0)
document.write('<a href="javascript:set_datetime('+dt_current_day.valueOf() +', true);">');

if (dt_current_day.getMonth() == this.dt_current.getMonth())
// print days of current month
document.write('<font color="#000000">');
else
// print days of other months
document.write('<font color="#606060">');

document.write(dt_current_day.getDate()+'</font>');

if ((obj_caller && obj_caller.past_dates) || dt_current_day - dt_today >= 0)
document.write('</a>');

document.write('</td>');


Hope this helps someone. It could use some work but it's a start.

document.write('</tr>');

// print calendar table

for (var n_current_wday=0; n_current_wday<7; n_current_wday++) {
if (dt_current_day.getDate() == dt_current.getDate() &&
dt_current_day.getMonth() == dt_current.getMonth())
// print current date
document.write('<td bgcolor="#ffb6c1" align="center" width="14%">');
else if (dt_current_day.getDay() == 0 || dt_current_day.getDay() == 6)
// weekend days
document.write('<td bgcolor="#dbeaf5" align="center" width="14%">');

// print working days of current month
document.write('<td bgcolor="#ffffff" align="center" width="14%">');

// if it's today or a future date allow it to be selected
if ((obj_caller && obj_caller.past_dates) || dt_current_day - dt_today >= 0)
document.write('<a href="javascript:set_datetime('+dt_current_day.valueOf() +', true);">');

if (dt_current_day.getMonth() == this.dt_current.getMonth())
// print days of current month
document.write('<font color="#000000" style="text-decoration: none">');
else
// print days of other months
document.write('<font color="#606060" style="text-decoration: none">');

document.write(dt_current_day.getDate()+'</font>');

if ((obj_caller && obj_caller.past_dates) || dt_current_day - dt_today >= 0)
document.write('</a>');

document.write('</td>');
dt_current_day.setDate(dt_current_day.getDate()+1);
}

// print row footer
document.write('</tr>');

}
