I am using this html tag as a datetime picker:
<input type="datetime-local">
I want to be able to set a default value for the time part only so if
someone inserts a date and doesn't insert the time (leaves it as --:--:--) then I will be able to set it as 00:00:00 for example.
The problem is I know only how to set the a value including both the date and time and if someone inserts only a date w/o the time I can't read that value and getting a blank value.
Is it possible to overcome that? or is there any other datetime picker I could use for the described scenario?
We can not change the behavior of browser against an element. So this is an answer to the second question that if there is another solution for this scenario. I used two separate fields of date and time which control a single datetime-local field.
Please note that the date filed has no value unless the field is totally completed. So I used blur event instead of keyup or change.
$(document).ready(function() {
var mydate, mytime, mystring;
$("#dateField").blur(function() {
if ($(this).val()) {
setResult();
}
})
$("#timeField").change(function() {
setResult()
})
})
function setResult() {
mydate = $("#dateField").val();
mytime = $("#timeField").val();
mystring = mydate + 'T' + mytime;
document.getElementById('resultField').value = mystring;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="dateField" type="date"><input id="timeField" type="time" value="18:30">
<br>
<strong>Result</strong>:
<br>
<input id="resultField" type="datetime-local">
Footnote 1:
The change listener works on time field (when has default value) but I noticed a vague behavior in google-chrome that if you change the value of time filed by mouse clicks, the change event is triggered after mouseOut! This has no effect on the answer above.
Footnote 2:
You can hide the result field inside a display:none div.

Summary: I have 5 text inputs, one of which is using the Date attribute. I'm adding validation to the inputs, and one feature I would like to add is to limit the max date. I know I can do this in HTML, however it looks like that only works for the calendar functionality. My thoughts are using keyup, so the user is unable to exceed the year 2050 (for example) within the input in real time.
Effort: I looked into the Max attribute in HTML for a while, but it looks like I will have to do this manually in either Js or jQuery. My immediate thought is to pull the value from the input, slice the last 4 integers, and then create text validation from that.
I would rather use a text input and create the entire validation myself, but I would like to keep the calendar functionality without using any external resources. I'm curious if there is a simpler or more efficient way of doing this?
<input type="date" class="search__input" id="adv-input-2" placeholder="MM / DD / YY" max="2050-12-31"></span>
I've also noticed that using keyup is actually not firing when I use it on a date input, until the entire date is inputted:
// sets limits for date input
$('#adv-input-2').keyup(function(e) {
let input = $(this);
});
For example, 10/DD/YYYY will result in value: "" until the entire field is completed.
If you want to do this manually then you can use change event instead of keyup like this way.
// sets limits for date input
$('#adv-input-2').change(function(e) {
let input = $(this);
console.log(input.val());
if(input.prop('max') < input.val()) {
input.val('');
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="date" class="search__input" id="adv-input-2" placeholder="MM / DD / YY" max="2050-12-31"></span>
Want to edit the input date and time inside the table. But if Iam typing the 1st number it suddenly get triggered. Value should trigger after the date and time get entered.
The value will come inside the table. I need to edit the value inside the table.
For example:
function myFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myInput").value;
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "You wrote: " + x;
}
<input type="datetime-local" id="myInput" oninput="myFunction()">
<p id="demo"> </p>
Make sure to distinguish between onkeyup and onchange correctly.
The first triggers change after pressing and releasing a key, the latter when taking focus away from input with an actual changed value.
I am trying to get the current date and time on a datetime-local input field, using an onclick method.
I have tried using moment.js and other libraries to do this, but for some reason, it cannot translate into the current datetime-local field. What am I doing wrong?
I decided to go back to basics with jquery alone and this is what I manged to get so far.
If you change the input type to text on the input box, the script works fine, but if its changed to datetime-local, it doesn't work.
$(
function(){
$('#time').click(function(){
var time = new Date();
$('#time-holder').val(time.toDateString());
});
}
);

When use input type datetime-local.
The date format must be as: 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss'
e.g: "2014-11-16T15:25:33"
$(
function(){
$('#time').click(function(){
var time = moment().format('YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss');
$('#time-holder').val(time);
});
}
);

I have the following..
# Html.EditorFor ( model = > model.Date )
A template editor also works in the DateTime type
Clicking on this entry, a calendar is displayed , you select a calendar date , and that date
is the new value of my post. What I need is to validate that the date you select is equal or greater than today.
I tried the onchange event for the EditorFor , but it did not work , Jquery DatePicker property has a MinDate
but added that would mean modifying the operation of all entries with the DateTime data type .
jQuery Datepicker has onSelect function which will give you the chosen date that is displayed in date input box! Here is a fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/aa74R/66/
onSelect: function(dateText, inst) {
var date = $(this).datepicker('getDate');
alert(date);
}
The Question is a bit vague, however I think this should help.
It looks like what you want to do is change the date, based on after you've selected a newDate. onChange should work. As far as why it isn't, it could be a matter of code.
If it's a matter of how you've written your code:
$('#inputId').on('change', function(){
var newDate = $(this).val();
});
I personally think this might be an easier approach for some, however inefficient as it persistently sets the date every time you leave the field:
$('#inputId').on('blur', function(){
var newDate = $(this).val();
});
There are also many other ways to write it. But I feel like this might have the proper level for you.
Question doesn't seem to have a context with the absence of code.
Since you have tagged jQuery a possible problem might be you are binding the onchange event to the textbox. If this textbox were to be dynamically generated, the onchange event would never be registered. If this is your problem then you could do this-
$("body").on("change", "#textBoxId", function(){
alert($(this).val());
});
I have just started using angular and in general love it. I have a UI requirement to show a date as text, then when you click on the text, it shows a date picker instead. Then when you select a date it goes back to text. Sounds simple.
I have tried a few variations on the below code the object being edited holds a value called editdate, clicking on the text box changes this to true and hides the text and shows the editor. This works fine, the problem is hiding the date picker. I tried adding ng-blur to the datepicker to cause the box to hide when it looses focus, but this was very intermittent as to if it worked. I then tried ng-Mouseleave but the box closed when I moved the mouse pointer into the date picker from the text box.
<td colspan="7">
Required Date : <span ng-click="item.editdate=true; item.delayeditclose = true;" ng-show="!item.editdate">{{item.dueDate.toDateString()}}</span>
<input type="date" ng-blur="item.editdate=false" ng-click="item.switcheditdate(item.delayeditclose)" ng-show="item.editdate" class="datepick" ng-model="item.dueDate" ng-focus="selectPart(item.partNumber)" />
</td>
The javascript is initialized as:
for (var i = 0; i < data.items.length; i++) {
item = data.items[i];
item.showExpanded = false;
item.editdate = false;
item.delayeditclose = true;
item.switcheditdate = function (delayclose) {
if (!delayclose) {
this.editdate = !this.editdate;
this.delayeditclose = true;
}
this.delayeditclose = false;
};
items.push(item);
}
I have now moved onto the above which almost does the job. The new issue being html5 date pickers seem to have a x to close them down. This hides the whole box and not just the picker part. If this happens I want to show the text of the date rather than what I get now which is nothing. Does anyone know of how I can capture this close event and revert back to the text or suggest a better approach to the problem?
I have lots of items each one is in its own row in a table
I am using angular 1.3 beta 8
thanks for looking

The reason why you are getting nothing is because when you click x what happens is that the date value gets cleared so then your date view is an empty string. What you can do is set a condition to display a string such as "Click to Edit" when the date is empty.
Taking just what you have above, one way of doing it is by adding an element and a flag in your date "view". So change this:
Required Date : <span ng-click="item.editdate=true; item.delayeditclose = true;" ng-show="!item.editdate">{{item.dueDate.toDateString()}}</span>
To:
Required Date :
<span ng-click="item.editdate=true; item.delayeditclose = true;" ng-show="!item.editdate">
<span>{{item.dueDate.toDateString()}}</span>
<span ng-show="!item.dueDate">Click to Edit</span>
</span>
The directive way
Now in my opinion I think it's much better to use a directive for this. It would simplify your logic and is much easier to re-use. I created a plunker which shows my implementation using a directive.
Answer to question in title
To answer the question posed by your title, when using the html5 date picker, you can't detect when it is closed (or even when it is opened). See this answer and the linked Quick FAQs on input[type=date]
