[CODE]
/***********************************************
* Drop Down Date select script- by JavaScriptKit.com

***********************************************/

var monthtext=[‘Jan’,’Feb’,’Mar’,’Apr’,’May’,’Jun’,’Jul’,’Aug’,’Sept’,’Oct’,’Nov’,’Dec’];

function populatedropdown(dayfield, monthfield, yearfield){
var today=new Date()
var dayfield=document.getElementById(dayfield)
var monthfield=document.getElementById(monthfield)
var yearfield=document.getElementById(yearfield)
for (var i=1; i<32; i++)
dayfield.options[i]=new Option(i, i+1)
dayfield.options[today.getDate()]=new Option(today.getDate(), today.getDate(), true, true) //select today’s day
for (var m=0; m<12; m++)
monthfield.options[m]=new Option(monthtext[m], monthtext[m])
monthfield.options[today.getMonth()]=new Option(monthtext[today.getMonth()], monthtext[today.getMonth()], true, true) //select today’s month
var thisyear=today.getFullYear()
for (var y=0; y<10; y++){
yearfield.options[y]=new Option(thisyear, thisyear)
thisyear+=1
}
yearfield.options[0]=new Option(today.getFullYear(), today.getFullYear(), true, true) //select today’s year
}
</script>

<script>
//populatedropdown(id_of_day_select, id_of_month_select, id_of_year_select)
window.onload=function(){
populatedropdown(“daydropdown”, “monthdropdown”, “yeardropdown”)
}
</script>

[/CODE]

Basically this has been used before though i want to modify it so that it dispalys the whole date in a singualr dropdown and ignores sundays as work is not done on sunday

How would i go about this

Thanks in advance

@KorApr 26.2011 — It is not very clear which is your aim. What do you need? To write a list box with some dates? Which dates? The next 10 days after today? Or?

@Macman21authorApr 27.2011 — I will admit i wasn't clear on that

Ideally i would like the next 30 days though i want it to ignore sundays in the dropdown using the current date as the default ie 27/04/2011 in a singular dropdown

Thanks hopefully this clears it up i just read it again and it was not clear


Thnaks for responding hopefully i get this working
