Validate past date and current date using client script

[sushma9]

Hi All,

 I am validating the past and current dates  using client scripts. Validation for the past date is working fine but if i take the todays  date its not working properly. Let me know if any changes required in my code. 

Apart from creating script include and on change client scripts and validating with UI Policies  and BR is there other  options to validate  the current date . Please let me know what are the changes to be done in my code to get the expected result.

Note : I am new to service now and learning the scripting part

Code :

    var td = new Date();

    var rd = new Date(g_form.getValue("u_date_of_reservation"));

    if (td > rd) {

        g_form.addErrorMessage(" You Have Selected the Past Date .Please Select the Future Date For Reservation !!!!")

        g_form.clearValue("u_date_of_reservation");

// below part of code is not working  //

    } else if (td = rd) {

        g_form.addInfoMessage(" You Have Selected Todays Date .Please Confirm to create the Reservtaion !!!!")

        return confirm();

    } else{

        g_form.addInfoMessage('Reservation is created successfully !!!');

    }

Error Message for todays Date :

Hi there,

If it's a date/time field, you could also consider using a UI Policy instead of Client Script.

Hi @sushma9,

I would suggest to use the UI policy instead of Client scripts.

You can easily achieve using the UI policies with proper conditions.

Take a look at this article. It will help you.
