I am editing a HTML file and there is one attribute application deadline. How can I set a default value to the application deadline to one year after today in the html code? Thanks for helping
Below is the original HTML code
<div class="field" > Application Deadline: <input type="date" id="id_application_deadline" name="application_deadline"> </div>> This is not possible without java script, Try this
<script language="javascript"> <!-- today = new Date(); document.write("", today.getDate(),"/",today.getMonth()+1,"/",today.getYear()); //--> </script> Just set the desired date as value attribute:
<input type="date" id="id_application_deadline" name="application_deadline" value="2013-05-29"> If you're only using html, without javascript, there won't be a way to calculate the 1 year offset i think.
try this
<head> <script type="text/javascript"> function onload() { var today = new Date(); var dd = today.getDate(); var mm = today.getMonth()+1; var yyyy = today.getFullYear(); yyyy = parseInt(yyyy) + 1; today = dd+'-'+mm+'-'+yyyy; document.getElementById("id_application_deadline").value = today; } </script> </head> <body onload="onload()"> <div class="field" > Application Deadline: <input type="text" id="id_application_deadline" name="application_deadline"> </div> </body>
