Conditionally display buttons


Recommended Posts

I would like to conditionally display a button when a date condition has been met.  Now I am displaying the following button all the time, but it becomes obsolete at a certain point:

 

<button onclick="location.href='https://banjimmie.weebly.com/submit-picks-pass.html?rid=[@field:RID#]'" type="button">SUBMIT PICKS</button>

I would like to display this button only when a field in a table [@date] is on or before today's date.

 

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

melissa

try this :

<div id="b[@field:RID#]"></div>
<script>
var date= new Date('[@field:Date*]');
var today = new Date('[@cbTimestamp*]');
if (date < today){
document.getElementById('b[@field:RID#]').innerHTML = '<button onclick="location.href=\'https://banjimmie.weebly.com/submit-picks-pass.html?rid=[@field:RID]\'" type="button">SUBMIT PICKS</button> ';
} 
</script>

[@field:Date*] is needs to be replaced with the date field from picker

May, you rock!  That worked.  However I have two buttons in this datapage, and it seems they affect each other.  So I a m wondering if I have to label the variables differently so the buttons behave independently.

Essentially one button appears after a date, and another button appears before a date.  I tried to change the name of the variables (e.g. var date1) but that doesn't seem to work.   Not sure if I need to change the "new Date" to something else, but that may be a standard term.

 

So I would need the same script but different IF statement (and can you do >= or <=?

 

<div id="b[@field:RID#]"></div>
<script>
var date= new Date('[@field:Date*]');
var today = new Date('[@cbTimestamp*]');
if (date  today){
document.getElementById('b[@field:RID#]').innerHTML = '<DIFFERENT BUTTON INFO> ';
} 
</script>
