Multiple Calendars on One Page

mak2112 · Jun 27, 2002

I want to have multiple calendars running on a page, I can get one to work, however when i duplicate the coding and change the names to the fields i want populated it does not work, any ideas as to why?

<head>
<title></title>
<SCRIPT LANGAUGE="JavaScript">
function y2k(number) { return (number < 1000) ? number + 1900 : number; }

var today = new Date();
var month = today.getMonth();
var day = today.getDate();
var year = y2k(today.getYear());

function padout(number) { return (number < 10) ? '0' + number : number; }

function restart() {
document.create.fielda.value = ''+ padout(month - 0 + 1) + '/' + padout(day) + '/' + year;
mywindow.close();
}

function newWindow() {
mywindow = window.open('calendar.htm','myname','resizable=no,width=350,height=270');
mywindow.location.href = 'calendar.htm';
if (mywindow.opener == null) mywindow.opener = self;

}
</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT LANGAUGE="JavaScript">
function y2k(number) { return (number < 1000) ? number + 1900 : number; }

var today = new Date();
var month = today.getMonth();
var day = today.getDate();
var year = y2k(today.getYear());

function padout(number) { return (number < 10) ? '0' + number : number; }

function restart() {
document.create.fieldb.value = ''+ padout(month - 0 + 1) + '/' + padout(day) + '/' + year;
mywindow.close();
}

function newWindow() {
mywindow = window.open('calendar.htm','myname','resizable=no,width=350,height=270');
mywindow.location.href = 'calendar.htm';
if (mywindow.opener == null) mywindow.opener = self;

}
</SCRIPT>

If you have the script sections just as you have them here, then it may be because you have duplicate functions, y2k, restart, newWindow, padout. You only need to define them once. I'd pass the field you want populated to the restart function instead of hardcoding it, then you only need to have one instance.

Code:

function restart(field) {
    fld = eval(&quot;document.create.&quot; + field);
    fld.value = ''+ padout(month - 0 + 1) + '/'  + padout(day) + '/' + year;
    mywindow.close();         
}
