Two drop-down list that used the same javascript function.

2 New Member
Good morning all,

Please I need help in a form that I have designed to fill user information. This form needs two drop-down list about specific date, one about contract date, and the other about birth date. I am using java script function to display the dates, and use onload() function to set the drop-down list to the current date.

I following error used to appear (null or not an object)!! Can any one help me in that?


The code:

[HTML]<head>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaS cript">

//set todays date
Now = new Date();
NowDay = Now.getDate();
NowMonth = Now.getMonth();
NowYear = Now.getYear();
if (NowYear < 2000) NowYear += 1900; //for Netscape

//function for returning how many days there are in a month including leap years
function DaysInMonth(Whi chMonth, WhichYear)
{
var DaysInMonth = 31;
if (WhichMonth == "Apr" || WhichMonth == "Jun" || WhichMonth == "Sep" || WhichMonth == "Nov") DaysInMonth = 30;
if (WhichMonth == "Feb" && (WhichYear/4) != Math.floor(Whic hYear/4)) DaysInMonth = 28;
if (WhichMonth == "Feb" && (WhichYear/4) == Math.floor(Whic hYear/4)) DaysInMonth = 29;
return DaysInMonth;
}

//function to change the available days in a months
function ChangeOptionDay s(Which)
{
DaysObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Day");
MonthObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Month");
YearObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Year");

Month = MonthObject[MonthObject.sel ectedIndex].text;
Year = YearObject[YearObject.sele ctedIndex].text;

DaysForThisSele ction = DaysInMonth(Mon th, Year);
CurrentDaysInSe lection = DaysObject.leng th;
if (CurrentDaysInS election > DaysForThisSele ction)
{
for (i=0; i<(CurrentDaysI nSelection-DaysForThisSele ction); i++)
{
DaysObject.opti ons[DaysObject.opti ons.length - 1] = null
}
}
if (DaysForThisSel ection > CurrentDaysInSe lection)
{
for (i=0; i<(DaysForThisS election-CurrentDaysInSe lection); i++)
{
NewOption = new Option(DaysObje ct.options.leng th + 1);
DaysObject.add( NewOption);
}
}
if (DaysObject.sel ectedIndex < 0) DaysObject.sele ctedIndex == 0;
}

//function to set options to today
function SetToToday(Whic h)
{
DaysObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Day");
MonthObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Month");
YearObject = eval("document. Englishform." + Which + "Year");

YearObject[0].selected = true;
MonthObject[NowMonth].selected = true;

ChangeOptionDay s(Which);

DaysObject[NowDay-1].selected = true;
}

//function to write option years minus x
function WriteYearOption s(YearsAhead)
{
line = "";
for (i=0; i<YearsAhead; i++)
{
line += "<OPTION>";
line += NowYear--;
}
return line;
}

The add() method of the select object has two arguments in standard-compliant browsers (i.e. browsers other than IE). See, for example, this link.

Just a quicky about temporarary tables. If using QA, when you create a temporary table, it gets dropped if you close the query. Otherwise you need to state 'DROP TABLE myTable' so that you can re-run the query without the table being there.

I'm trying to create a file using drag and drop. I want to be able to select a listview item drag it to the shell and create a file. Each icon in the listview represents a blob in a database. When I drop onto the shell I want a file created with a specified name containing the data from the database. I've looked at the FileDrop format but it look to have only the filename and not the data. TIA
