Hi all,
I’m writing a view that shows two date values that I’d like to put in two <input type=‘date’ …> controls.
I receive the dates via SOAP calls and they are always formatted as ‘yyyy-mm-dd’.
With this format, the input control is not able to parse a date.
How can i handle the change of format to allow both the write and the read in the input control?
Thanks!
Do you have access to the SOAP Webservice?
APIs should provide data in a standardpattern… and for Dates it is the best to use timestamps. So you want have any problems.
To solve your Problem on clientside --> you need to create a new Date-Objekt with the given formatter
new Date('2014-10-31');
after that you can peform all javascript date-functions
Yes, it is a third-part service, I cannot modify it !
Ok, i created the date object but how can i feed the input field with the required format??
How can I handle the value when I read the new value?
