Double Calendar - Syntax error when calling setTimeout

Discontinued products Uncategorized discussions
#1

I am having a problem with calling a setTimeout in my Double Calendar. See below…



The function seems to work fine when I call it on the left calendar but not on the right???



And onload will only load one of the functions???



var diia="";

var xmlHttp;



function calchange(dvid,adr,str)

{

xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject();

if (xmlHttp==null)

{

alert (“Browser does not support HTTP Request”);

return;

}

diia=dvid;

var url=adr;

var dii=dvid;

var strw=new Date(str);

str=strw.getDay();

url=url+"?q="+str;

url=url+"&dii="+dii;

url=url+"&sid="+Math.random();

xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;

xmlHttp.open(“GET”,url,true);

xmlHttp.send(null);

return false;

}



function stateChanged()

{

if (xmlHttp.readyState==4 || xmlHttp.readyState==“complete”)

{

document.getElementById(diia).innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;

diia=null;

}



}



function GetXmlHttpObject()

{

var xmlHttp=null;

try

{

// Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari

xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();

}

catch (e)

{

//Internet Explorer

try

{

xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject(“Msxml2.XMLHTTP”);

}

catch (e)

{

xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);

}

}

return xmlHttp;

}

    })



// set date difference at page load

var time1 = Date.parse(mDCal.rightCalendar.getDate()) - Date.parse(mDCal.leftCalendar.getDate()); //get difference

document.getElementById(“daycount”).value = Math.floor(time1 / (1000606024)); //convert it to days

// set times according to day of date at page load

window.setTimeout(‘calchange(“ReturnTime”,“returnchange1a.php”,mDCal.rightCalendar.getDate())’,1); // doesn’t work (unless line below removed)

window.setTimeout(‘calchange(“CollectionTime”,“departchange1a.php”,mDCal.leftCalendar.getDate())’,1); // works great

    }

It seems that the issue isn’t related to calendar component.


If you’re sure that rightCalendar.getDate() or leftCalendar.getDate() doesn’t return the date in some cases, please, provide the sample which demonstrates it.

You are right, the issue was with my javascript, I needed to bracket my if statement better.



Its working now, and I have to say I really love the double calendar.



Thanks for the point in the right direction.
