Prevent Date Selection Less Than 2 Weeks In Future

[abitaquest]

Hi, all. So, I need to make the calendar date selection tool available to my form's users, but I don't want them to select a date that is less than two weeks in the future. In other words, if today is Sept. 10, the earliest date they should be able to enter/select is Sept. 24.

 

Ideas?

 

Thanks much!

Hello abitaquest,

 

On your Submission Form, you can add a Header & Footer element. Then you can select the Footer element, click the "Source" button and enter the following code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">


function check_date()
{
var entered_value = document.getElementById("InsertRecordDate").value;
var entered_date = new Date(entered_value);


var two_week_date = new Date();
two_week_date.setDate(two_week_date.getDate() + 14);


if(entered_date < two_week_date)
   {
      alert("Please select a date after 2 weeks");
      return false;
   }
}


document.getElementById("caspioform").onsubmit=check_date;
</SCRIPT>

Please enter name of your field instead of "FIELDNAME" in the line

var entered_value = document.getElementById("InsertRecordFIELDNAME").value;

 

Also you can enter your message instead of "Please select a date after 2 weeks".

 

I hope, it helps.
