Hi Tom,
Running the attached tying in the searchbar :
ukrail /from newcastle /to london waterloo /outtime 15:30
Had a chance to look at your code today...
You did not have several of the form elements required to make your
code work (notably the outHourField and outMinuteField, but the ret
fields, as well).
And it looks like the biggest potential problem was with your
comparison operator - you were using = instead of ==. In
JavaScript you compare values using ==, not =. I've attached a 'fixed'
and working copy. I didn't add any new functionality, so it doesn't
include the ability to schedule return times yet. I leave that as an
excersize for the reader. ;)
Lastly, it doesn't like the default of 'today' if the current local pc
time is after the UK time. Since it's tomorrow there and only today
here, this would be a bit of a pain to correct easily. Fortunately
this is probably not going to be much of an issue for those of us that
are 'remote' - since finding out what time the rail departs today is
likely not an issue. ;)
Regards,
Shawn K. Hall
