I'm doing a small project for work, and I created a small HTML text file. Looking to parse the given date of birth from dropdown menus into an age that I can then run through a control flow.
I've created the dropdown lists to select the date of birth using the <select> tag, then option values. Afterwards added a submit button using the <input type="submit">
I'm trying to do this without using any external libraries or frameworks.
How can I get the person's age in only years?
it's not exactly and i suggest you to use a library but here is a proximation:
function calcAge() {
let day = document.getElementById('day').value;
let month = document.getElementById('month').value;
let year = document.getElementById('year').value;
let birthday = new Date(year, month, day);
document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = ~~(((Date.now() - birthday) / (31557600000)));
}
<label id="date_of_birth">Date of Birth:<br />
<select class="first" name="date_of_birth:day" tabindex="7" id="day">

Here's my code on JavaScript...
let now = new Date();
let day = document.getElementById("dob-day").value;
let month = document.getElementById("dob-month").value;
let year = document.getElementById("dob-year").value;
(function() {
document.getElementById("run").addEventListener("click", function(){
})
})();
YOu will not need an iife and get the value of day,month and year inside the click function.
Then using Date function convert the input to date and subtract from current date and get the number of days.
document.getElementById("run").addEventListener("click", function() {
let now = new Date();
let day = document.getElementById("dob-day").value;
let month = document.getElementById("dob-month").value;
let year = document.getElementById("dob-year").value;
var timeDiff = Math.abs((new Date(`${month}/${day}/${year}`)).getTime() - now.getTime());
var diffDays = Math.ceil(timeDiff / (1000 * 3600 * 24));
console.log(diffDays)
})

I am looking for a solution to create a scrollable DOB selector menu (one for month/day/and year) that opens in the middle of the list with the date current year - 18, using HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery, or bootstrap. I have been struggling to find a solution that allows a menu to open in the middle options with the top overflow still visible. I've seen some solutions to get the current year - 18 but none with the middle opening.
I'm starting to question if this is even possible and only an option with year select menu for the iPhone.
Rough idea on what I am looking to do
I'm also interested in hearing any alternative ideas you guys would have to have a quicker and more accessible way to have users input their DOB's, maybe something like the IOS Date picker but a desktop alternative.
What I have so far, basic DOB dropdown

</div>
Now there are two hidden fields present on the form as follows :
<input type="hidden" name="val[start_time]" id="start_time" value=""/>
<input type="hidden" name="val[end_time]" id="end_time" value=""/>
Now what I want to do is when user selects all the values from the respective drop downs only then the selected values should get combined and should be stored in respecive hidden fields.
For example if user selects Start Time as follows 2 from Hour, 30 from Minutes and PM then the string to be formed and to be stored should be 02:35 PM. Same should be applicable to end date.
If anything is missing proper alert message should appear. How should I achieve this using jQuery/Javascript?
Thanks.
I have created a JSFiddle for you. I made the hidden text boxes visible for you to check the output. It's better to replace the alert messages with a DIV in production. Hope this helps.

and i was thinking to use javascript to update it with something like this
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var selOptions = [
['2014','2014','2015','2016','2017','2018'],
['2015','2015','2016','2017','2018','2019'],
['2016','2016','2017','2018','2019','2020'],
['2017','2017','2018','2019','2020','2021'],

];
function setSel2Options(obj){
oSel2.options.length = 0;
if(obj.selectedIndex == 0){return;}
for(i=0; i < selOptions.length; i++){
if(obj.value == selOptions[i][0]){
oSel2.options[oSel2.options.length] = new Option('Select a year','',false,false);
for(j=1; j < selOptions[i].length; j++){
oSel2.options[oSel2.options.length] = new Option(selOptions[i][j],selOptions[i][j],false,false);
}
i = selOptions.length;
}
}
}
window.onload=function(){
oSel1 = document.getElementById('sel1');
oSel2 = document.getElementById('sel2');
oSel1.options[oSel1.options.length] = new Option('Select an option','',false,false);
for(i=0; i < selOptions.length; i++){
oSel1.options[oSel1.options.length] = new Option(selOptions[i][0],selOptions[i][0], false,false);
}
oSel1.onchange=function(){setSel2Options(this);}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="sel1"></select>
<select id="sel2"></select>
</body>
</html>
Is this actually possible?
