I have a jquery ui datepicker and the picked date is passing to a php page using post method. The full code of my php file is given below.
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>Datepicker</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#startDate" ).datepicker({
defaultDate: (new Date(2013, 1 - 1, 26)),
changeMonth: true,
<!-- numberOfMonths: 1, -->
onClose: function( selectedDate ) {
$( "#endDate" ).datepicker( "option", "minDate", selectedDate );
}
});
$( "#endDate" ).datepicker({
defaultDate: new Date(),
changeMonth: true,
<!-- numberOfMonths: 1, -->
onClose: function( selectedDate ) {
$( "#startDate" ).datepicker( "option", "maxDate", selectedDate );
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form action="date.php" method="post">
<label for="startDate">startDate</label>
<input type="text" id="startDate" name="startDate" />
<label for="endDate">endDate</label>
<input type="text" id="endDate" name="endDate" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<?php
$startdate = isset($_POST['startDate']) ? $_POST['startDate'] : '';
echo $startdate;
?>
</body>
</html>
In the above code, the value of the picked date is passed to php only after submitting the form using submit button. How can I pass the value on select of the date picker using ajax? So that, the php echo function will display date dynamically on selecting the datepicker.

basically I have a large form created on my WordPress site using Gravity Forms. One section of my forms has a bunch of items listed with a 'Start Date' followed by an 'End Date' -- Example:
Item | Start Date | End Date
Item#1 | 05/01/2015 | 05/25/2015
What I am after is making it so I can disallow the 'End Date' from being before the selected 'Start Date'. It would be best if the user was unable to even select the date from the date picker drop down, but if it has to be an error that pops up on submission, that is fine to. I have been researching this for hours and I am just too noob to know exactly what to do. Thanks for any and all help!
Try something like this, which uses jQuery's datepicker functions:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://jqueryui.com/resources/demos/style.css">
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#from" ).datepicker({
defaultDate: "+1w",
changeMonth: true,
numberOfMonths: 3,
onClose: function( selectedDate ) {
$( "#to" ).datepicker( "option", "minDate", selectedDate );
}
});
$( "#to" ).datepicker({
defaultDate: "+1w",
changeMonth: true,
numberOfMonths: 3,
onClose: function( selectedDate ) {
$( "#from" ).datepicker( "option", "maxDate", selectedDate );
}
});
});
</script>
<label for="from">From</label>
<input type="text" id="from" name="from">
<label for="to">to</label>
<input type="text" id="to" name="to">
I am using jQueryUI datepicker and here is the code.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>

}
});
$( "#to" ).datepicker({
defaultDate: "+1w",

onClose: function( selectedDate ) {

<form action="{LINKTO_EXPORT}" method="post">
<h1>{EXPORT_CSV}</h1>
<label for="from">from</label>
<input type="text" id="from" name="from">
<label for="to">to</label>
<input type="text" id="to" name="to">
<input type="submit" value="{EXPORT_TEXT}">
</form>
When I "post" the "from" and "to",
$fromstr = $_POST["from"];
$tostr = $_POST["to"];
$from = date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime($fromstr." 02:00:00"));
$to = date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime($tostr." 02:00:00"));
the to has been converted properly, i.e., 2015-06-13 02:00:00 but the from has not. It returned 6/1/2015 2:00 instead. To make sure I am fetching the correct values, I echoed the $fromstr and $tostr.
$fromstr returned 6/1/2015
$tostr returned 06/13/2015
Why was the from returned m/d/yyyy while to did mm/dd/yyyy? How do I convert a m/d/yyyy string to timestamp then? Please help, thank you!
Try this..
Download following js
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://xdsoft.net/scripts/jquery.datetimepicker.css"/>
<script src="http://xdsoft.net/scripts/jquery.datetimepicker.js"></script>
You cant use directly ,so download js and css.
<script>
$(function() {
$('#datetimepicker8').datetimepicker({
onGenerate:function( ct ){
$(this).find('.xdsoft_date')
.toggleClass('xdsoft_disabled');
},
minDate:'-1970/01/2',
maxDate:'+1970/01/2',
timepicker:false
});
$('#datetimepicker9').datetimepicker({
onGenerate:function( ct ){
$(this).find('.xdsoft_date')
.toggleClass('xdsoft_disabled');
},
minDate:'-1970/01/2',
maxDate:'+1970/01/2',
timepicker:false
});
});
</script>
<input type="text" id="datetimepicker8"/>
<input type="text" id="datetimepicker9"/>
How do I get the date from a jquery UI datepicker like the month and save the value of it in a variable in php?
I've seen a lot of things like this <div id="calendar"></div> and I don't understand.
Thanks.
Here's my code

var day1 = $(this).datepicker('getDate').getDate();
var month1 = $(this).datepicker('getDate').getMonth();
var year1 = $(this).datepicker('getDate').getYear();
}
});
$( "#to" ).datepicker({

var year2 = $(this).datepicker('getDate').getYear();
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<label for="from"> FROM </label>
<input type="text" id="from" name="from">
<label for="to"> TO </label>
<input type="text" name="username" id="to" name="to">
<input type="submit" name="boton" value=" Submit ">
</body>
</html>
HTML
<input type="text" name="datepicker" value="26-10-15" />
PHP
if it has isset submit denotes that the submit the form
<?php if($_REQUEST['datepicker'])){
echo $_POST['datepicker'];
} ?>
You have to apply datepicker to input field like
<input type="text" value="<?php echo date("Y-m-d"); ?>" name="selectedDate"/>
Than in PHP just check value from $_GET or $_POST:
$selectedDate = isset($_REQUEST['selectedDate']) ? $_REQUEST['selectedDate'] : null;
You have HTML:
<input type="text" name="username" id="to" name="to">
For that you call datepicker:
$( "#to" ).datepicker({/* ... */});
Now all you need to do is:
Wrap your input fields with <form action="mySubmitScript.php" method="post"></form> add additionally <input type="submit" value="submit">
In PHP you do:
if (isset($_POST['to'])) {
$to = $_POST['to'];
}
You can submit form without reloading page using $.ajax() jQuery method.
When i submitted form than if error occurred than value is not set in datepicker which is selected before. Datepicker field empty . how this possible ??
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" >.
$(function() {
$( "#dob" ).datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
yearRange: '1900:'
});
$( "#dob" ).datepicker( "option", "dateFormat", "dd-mm-yy" );
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="text" name="dob" id="dob" value="<?php if(isset($_SESSION['dob'])) echo $_SESSION['dob']; ?>" placeholder="Please enter date of birth" required/>
</form>
<body>
</html>
There can be many reasons for this issue.
Either the dob variable is null/empty/undefined.
The dob value is not in the correct format.
You have not used defaultDate in the datepicker.
For 1st part, you can only log and debug what is wrong.
For 2nd part, you can format the value in correct format. Search on SO for formatting a string to Date.
For the 3rd part:
$(function () {
$("#dob").datepicker({
defaultDate: $(this).val(), //Add this
dateFormat: 'dd-mm-yy', // And this too
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
yearRange: '1900:'
});
});
I don't see the echo results in the HTML part of this code where I try to echo $_POST variables. I fill out my form. Click submit but nothing appears under the form, but it should show two strings.
It's a one page form that will extract XML data from a URL that I build in this code based on values provided in the form fields.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['company']) and isset($_GET['from']) and isset($_GET['to']) and isset($_GET['submit'])){
$parameters = array(
'company' => $_GET['company'],
'from' => $_GET['from'],
'to' => $_GET['to']
);
// create condition
$condition = "date_entered > '" . $parameters['from'] . "' && date_entered < '" . $parameters['to'] . "' && company_name = '" . $parameters['company'] . "'";
$url = "www.abc.com/c=" . $condition;
echo '<p>'.$condition.'</p>';
echo '<p>'.$url.'</p>';
$_GET['condition'] = $condition;
$_GET['url'] = $url;
}
?>

Dump the global $_GET, compare it to what you are checking. That should help.
