Hi everyone!
I have a date field Due date (due_date) on a custom table. I need to prevent entering a date into this field that is prior to today. To achieve this I've created a client script and an accompanying script include. I believe I am close, anyone see why it's not working? thanks!
my onChange client script is:
function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}
//make sure they are not asking for a due date in the past (before now)
var ga = new GlideAjax("NowDateCalc"); //name of the called script include
ga.addParam("sysparm_name", "getNow"); //name of the function in the script include
ga.getXML(getDate); //callback function
}
function getDate(response) {
var due_date = g_form.getValue('due_date'); //due_date is the name of the field on the table
var rightNow = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
if (due_date < rightNow) {
alert("Due date cannot be earlier than today.");
g_form.setValue('due_date', '');
}
}
and my script include, "NowDateCalc" is:
var NowDateCalc = Class.create();
NowDateCalc.prototype = Object.extendsObject(global.AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
getNow : function() {
return gs.now();
},
type: 'NowDateCalc'
});
