The script works fine, but I'm wondering if there's any way to
dynamically populate the pulldown lists with all the months of the
year, days of the month, etc. - rather than have to list each one out
like this:

<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>

<option value="4">4</option>
etc.
etc.
etc.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

HTML isn't a programming language, it's fundamentally a static text
markup language. So stick static things into it statically.

If you want to generate this programmatically (probably overkill for
days and months, but the principle isn't bad) then do it with some
server-side program that's _external_ to the HTML document itself (and
it's only a line or two of ASP, even ASP/VBScript).

Embedding executables into static documents is only sensible if you're
deliberately trying to obfuscate things, or you're drawing Hilbert
curves.

There's no such tag as <align="left">
(it's the default alignment anyway)
and you use of &nbsp;
for spacing is not recommended;
consider using a <table>.

Also, you may want to use 2-digit months and days.

Furthermore, a "date picker" pulldown menu of Month/Day/Year selections

I am not very good at VBs so i made this in Js. Insert this at top of your VBS script
tag :

There is a variable named elementNames.. The syntax is like :
"ID of element|LengthAndValueOptions,ID|LengthAndValue etc.etc...



<script language="JScript">
window.onload=Makee
elementNames="FromDaySelection|31,FromMonthSelection|12,ToMonthSelection|12,ToDaySelection|31"

function Makee(){
eN=elementNames.split(",");numm=new Array()
for(indX=0;indX<eN.length;indX++){
numm[indX]=parseInt(eN[indX].substring(eN[indX].length-2,eN[indX].length))
eN[indX]=document.getElementById(eN[indX].substring(0,eN[indX].length-3));
}

A topic of discussion doesn't become on-topic in a newsgroup because
people may mention it in passing while discussing something that is on
topic, or because other people have already raised it in off-topic postings.

HTA is for running apps on local computers. C.i.w.a.h is about authoring
HTML for the Web. They're mutually exclusive.

Alt.html is about anything HTML related, so I don't see any problem with
bringing up the topic there. OMMV (others' mileage may vary).
Furthermore, a "date picker" pulldown menu of Month/Day/Year selections
is a *very* common element on websites;

but not as an HTA.

People in a wine newsgroup might know something about cheese, but ask a
cheese-related question in a cheese newsgroup and leave the wine
newsgroup for people to discuss wine. Otherwise the point of having
separate newsgroups for so many topics is kind of defeated.

It's one thing if there isn't *any* obvious newsgroup to post a question
in, or if a newsgroup specific to the subject exists but has no traffic
other than spammers. But this isn't one of those situations. Frankly, I
would think that one of the microsoft.* newsgroups related to
"inetexplorer" would be the best bet.

Well, you could read the FAQ on the subject of dates.

Your job is done using javascript in my js-date6.htm#YMD, including only
offering the right number of days for the selected month. There is also
code for year-week-day numbering, using standard weeks.

But you should consider whether all likely users will have scripting
enabled.

FU set.

It's not clear whether you've got your
answer yet, in all this confusion. :)

So just in case....
In addition to McKirihan's method of
looping through pre-existing options, you
can also load them and clear them dynamically.

It's awkward because it's non-intuitive.
The DOM treats an option as an object, so you have
to "create" them and add them to a SELECT::

Dim Opt

Set Opt = document.createElement("OPTION")
Opt.text = '-- text of option here.
Opt.value = '-- hidden value here.
FromMonthSelection.add Opt
Set Opt = Nothing

To clear options just use:

FromMonthSelection.length = 0

And it's perfectly possible to create one in standard HTML, without any
need for all of that HTA / VBScript fecal matter.

Given that:

1. You can't control the order of selection so using script to modify
date selects rapidly becomes overly complex.
2. Users without scripting available or enabled (or an incompatible
browser) can't enter a date at all
3. Many users find "date selects" annoying

why not just let the user enter a normal date in a text input?

hi Highlander,

I'm impressed with all that html to get the date,
but why not let microsoft do the work?

Microsoft has a "date-picker" control which has
good-looking graphics, and is familiar to anybody
who uses windows.

If you have a recent version of vb (or maybe even
vba) you will have "date-picker" available, and
it is scriptable via an actX interface.

Microsoft's (vb) date-picker is located in mscomct2.ocx.
There is a demo script attached which shows how to
use it.

There is more. Microsoft also published a msCalender
control (mscal.ocx). There is also a demo script
(hta) attached, in case you happen to have the mscal
control on your system. (I personally like the DTP
better).

Returning to the date-picker control, if you _don't_
happen to have microsoft's control installed, there
are several other versions published. I happen to
like the ccrp's (Common Control Replacement Project)
-- a group of guys (sorry, no gals) who are so arrogant
that they think they can do a better job with the controls
than microsoft, and generally succeeded.

Here is a reference to the ccrp "date-picker" control,
which they call the "Date/Time-Picker":

http://ccrp.mvps.org/index.html?controls/ccrpdtp6.htm

It is also an actX control and you ought to be able
to instantiate it on an hta page and also script it,
even though I don't have a demo of that.

cheers, jw

p.s. I have also seen html/dhtml versions of the
date-picker control, but why bother?

JW,

This is exactly what I was looking for! Selecting dates is now much
more efficient, there's built-in date validation, and you've cut my
script down from 181 lines to 56:

<html>
<head>
<title>Date Pulldowns</title>
<HTA:APPLICATION
ID="HTAUI"
APPLICATIONNAME="Date Pulldowns"
SCROLL="no"
SINGLEINSTANCE="yes"
WINDOWSTATE="maximized">
</head>
<SCRIPT language="VBScript">
Dim fromDate, toDate
Sub Window_Onload
self.Focus()
self.ResizeTo 400,200
self.MoveTo 400,150
End Sub
Sub DisplayDatesSub
fromDate = CStr(FromDTP.Month) & "/" & CStr(FromDTP.Day) & "/" & _
CStr(FromDTP.Year)
toDate = CStr(ToDTP.Month) & "/" & CStr(ToDTP.Day) & "/" & _
CStr(ToDTP.Year)
MsgBox "From:" & vbTab & fromDate & vbCrlf & "To:" & vbTab & toDate
End Sub
</SCRIPT>

<BODY STYLE="font:6 pt arial; color:white;
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient
(GradientType=1, StartColorStr='#000000', EndColorStr='#0000FF')">
<font face="serif" size="4"><b>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

One question jw. When the script opens the date fields display the
current date. After I've made some selections of different dates, is
there any way to programatically (VBScript) reset the date display to
the current date? Thanks.

And thanks to everyone else who had offered their suggestions.

- Dave
