Hi there,

unfortunately, it is not possible just to show 2 months in the calendar of a date field, unless you create your own date field UI

but it is possible to validate the value entered to make sure the date is within those two months

Hi again,

if you want to use the JavaScript to do this, use the new Date() constructor to create a Date object..

Hope this help!

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I will try this.

But, i have many dates fiels. So, cant i use un fuunction to call the script ?

I try to make by a script object. But it does't seem to work.

There is the code to call the function on exit event:

form1.#subform[0].Choix1Date1[3]::exit - (JavaScript, client)

DateValide(Choix1Date1[3]);

Hi there,

if you want to call a function from a script object, do not forget to reference the object that holds the function to be able to call the function needed!

Or else it will cause an error, verify the JavaScript debugger and see what is the error message, or you may use the try catch statement for LiveCycle to help you

HI,

i think a do semthing wrong to call the fuction.

I create a scritp object on parent form. called VDate.

My function is called datevalide.

So i call the scrit with this syntac:

Vdate.DateValide (laDate)

It doesnt do anything.  How do a call the fuction that i created ?

It is highly possible that you are having issues because you are not creating the Date object correctly,

Would you share your form, or part of the form so I can have a look at it?

Because the following line :

is really picky on the parametes, so if any of the substrings function doesn't return the right value, it will not create the date object and cause errors...

If you want to fix it yourself, make sure that the substrings values are correct and if they are correct, I don't know what to tell you, so maybe I should take a look at it if you cannot fix it starting from there

Hope this help!
