In that case this is very much a JavaScript question and not a Struts
one. I can tell you that the JavaScript Date functions are terrible. You
could adapt my previous technique as follows:
1) Create a variable for holding the total
2) Create a Date object form both the start and end dates.
3) Convert these to JS Time Stamps (there is a JS function for this in
the Date object), a JS time stamp is the number of milliseconds since
Jan 1 1970.
4) Run a loop like:
for(var x = startTimeStamp;x<endTimeStamp;x+=86400000) { //86400000 is
the number of MilliSeconds in a day
//create a JS Date object for the current day we are checking (x)
// then do the same as with the Java sudo code I posted before
}

Subject: Re: number of days
This isn't a struts question but anyway, assuming you want to do this on
the server side and not on the client side (you'd be mad to do it on the
client side) the java Date related utility classes will be able to help
you out (java.util.Calendar, java.util.GregorialCalendar, java.util.Date).
The way I would do it would be something like this:
1) Create a counter to hold your total
2) Create a date for your start time and for your end time
3) Convert the date for your start time to a Calendar
Write a while loop something like:
while(startDate.before(EndDate)){
if(startDate is a Sunday){
; file://do nothing
}if(startDate is a Saturday){
total += 0.5;
}else{
total += 1.0;
}
file://add a day to the Start Date
}
