separate dates using split function

[DEV976]

Hi All, 
i am new to split function. 
I want to separate date, month and year from dd-mm-yyyy format on catalog item and show just month at there.

there are 2 variables. one is date [dt] and second is show date[u_sd]. the requirement is: autopopulate date on show date variable and the date that is present on show date, it's month must be convert into name, like jan for 1 or march for 3 etc.

thanks

hello @DEV976 ,

write a onchange client script on first date field and try code like below.

you can do something like below:-

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

return;

}

var months=["jan","feb","march","april","may","june","july","sep","october","november","december"];

newValue= newValue.split("-",[3]);

var month=newValue[1];

var name=(months[month-1]);

var date2= newValue[0]+"-"+name+"-"+newValue[2];

g_form.setValue('u_date2',date2);

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

}

Regards,

Ranjit

[DEV976]

it is catalog variable name:
u_date (from there I am taking date) and write(it contain the july value)

so you have two field one is date type second is string and if you select 2023-07-17 in date field then you want to set JULY into second string type field is it right?
