Date and Time Input Validation

Posted on Dec 02, 2004 at 10:45 PM 74 Views

Anyone know a good way to validate date and time that a user is entering on the screen. Our users want to enter AM and PM time vs. Military time.

Also, since Input fields don't have an "onBlur" command, what are other companies using in java script.

    We had a similiar problem.

    We read the inputfield as a string and simply used string manipulation to alter the time format. We knew there was a : and AM or PM or am or PM so we just played around, we eventually changed it to force military time format due to type errors and people using a mix of time formats.

    Hi Anthony,

    try these two function modules:

    CONVERT_TIME_INPUT

    CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL

    Check results depend on time zone system settings or user settings in su01

    regards, Ulli
