how to differentiate between dateTime field and text field in scripting?

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

  Which property for dateTime and text fields can help me in differentiating them in scripting with javascript?

I have a form where I need to check on its parent subform and find all the fields, if it is a datefield, I have to display something and if it is a text field, i have to display something else in the popup.

I know we can get the difference between a static text field and the normal text or date field by using the class name. if class name is field, then it is a editable field and if the class name is "draw", then it is a static text field. But not getting idea in differentiating two fields i.e., text field and datetime field.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Well. I got the answer myself.

This is the condition I used to see if it is a text field or dateTime field.

I used the below condition:

If (this.ui.oneOfChild.className

== "dateTimeEdit")

{

    ///code

}

Regards,

Chaitanya
