Re: [flexcoders] dateField questions?

2005-02-24 Thread ibibas 

Alf,

It means you intend to access to any datefield field in your application
from a generic function in an external AS file, don´t you?.
In this case, the argument should be the Datefield id:

getCurrentDate(myDateFieldId);

function getCurrentDate(myArg)
{
var myArg;// it must be the id
myArg.selectedDate = new Date();
}

The id. must be unique. To access to a field in a .mxml file from an
external file, you should specify the complete path from the Application
tag.

For example:

main.mxml
-
mx:Application xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
xmnls:myNameSpace=*..

myNameSpace:sample id=sample

..
/mx:Application

sample.mxml
---

...

mx:DateField id=inputDate dateFormatter=formatDate /



The path to this datefield is: mx.core.Application.application.sample.
inputDate

Hi ibibas,

How would I set up a function to accept an argument like this:

getCurrentDate(myDateFieldNameHere);

I know this isn't correct:
function getCurrentDate(myArg)
{
var myArg;
myArg.selectedDate = new Date();
}

I would like to make the function generic so I could reuse it on other
screens
using the same external AS file.

thanks,
-Art


Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Once created the datefield, use this code in a ActionScript function:

 inputDate.selectedDate = new Date();

 where inputDate:

 mx:DateField id=inputDate dateFormatter=formatDate /

 You can format it using this function:

 function formatDate(item) {
 var df:DateFormatter = new DateFormatter();

 df.formatString = DD/MM/; // this the mask

 return df.format(item);
 }


 Hope it helps...;-)

yes, 
you are correct, but you can pass any date to the dateField and set the 
selectedDate to that date...

Hi Tracy,
Works great!
Here is the code for whoever needs it ;)
my AS:
getCurrentDate(commDate);
My Function:
function getCurrentDate(dateField:mx.controls.DateField)
{
dateField.selectedDate = new Date();
}
my MXML:
mx:DateField id=commDate/
Quoting Tracy Spratt [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
=
Take out the re-declaration of var myArg, make sure you pass in a 
reference not a string and that should work fine.

If you will always be passing in a date field, type the argument:
public function setCurrentDate(dateField:mx.controls.DateField):Void

Hi All,

How does one access the dateField component and set a specific date to be
visible on init? right now by default is comes up blank and showToday only
highlights Todays date on the popup dateChooser.
