Need a function written

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

The issue I have is my home page pulls a calendar page through an I Frame. I have the I Frame calling an asp page (say.. june.asp) . I have a page per month built out to december 2006. The hassle with this is that as soon as July comes I have to manually go into my home page and change june.asp to july.asp or it will just stay at june everytime someone opens my homepage. I’m sure there’s a way to make the I Frame call a variable and create javascript to do a getdate where, IF getdate is = “thisdate” THEN variable = “thispage” ELSE IF getdate is = “nextdate” THEN variable = “nextpage” and write one for every month. Sounds pretty simple but I can’t figure it out. Can anyone help out? ?

@phpnoviceJun 02.2006 — It would be best if you did this all on the server side. Such a server-side home page would be [b]default.asp[/b] rather than [b]index.html[/b] -- but... For a JavaScript solution:

Put this in the HEAD:

<script type="text/javascript">

var months = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "October", "November", "December"];

</script>

Then, code your IFRAME as follows:

<iframe name="calendar" src="about:blank" ...etc...>Calendar</iframe>

<script type="text/javascript">

self.frames["calendar"].location.href = months[(new Date()).getMonth()].toLowerCase() + ".asp";

</script>

@dthurman1432authorJun 02.2006 — My home page is in asp but I thought it would be easiest with a function. Do you know of an asp way?

@phpnoviceJun 02.2006 — In ASP, the following is all that is required:

<iframe src="<%=LCase(MonthName(Date(), False))&".asp"%>" ...etc...>Calendar</iframe>

Success!
