Compare a field date with current time using Client Script.

Hi,

I want that on change_request table, planned start date should always be 24hrs ahead of current time.

I have done this successfully using Business Rule, But I have to do this using Client Script.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
return;
}
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

var start = g_form.getValue('start_date');
var dttype = 'hour';
var ajax = new GlideAjax('ClientDateTimeUtils');
ajax.addParam('sysparm_name','getNowDateTimeDiff');
ajax.addParam('sysparm_fdt', start);
ajax.addParam('sysparm_difftype', dttype);
ajax.getXML(doSomething);

function doSomething(response){
var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

if (answer >= 1)

{g_form.addErrorMessage('Selected time should be more than 24 hours of current time');

}
}

it is not working. Can someone help with the code?

I see, if you only want to write in client script. You can using pure javascript in stead of ajax call.

Below is the sample: You write this in your client script then you should able to get day ago date and from there u can continue your checking logic.

var d = new Date();
d.setDate(d.getDate() - 1);
alert(d.toString());

function onSubmit(){
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

var start = g_form.getValue('start_date');
var today = new Date();
today.setDate(today.getDate());
if (start.toString() <= today.toString()){
g_form.addErrorMessage("Planned Start Date cannot be less than 24 hrs ahead in future.");

return false;
}
}

Hope this helps

Thanks,

Siva
