asp_databases thread: interesting problem


Message #1 by imran.saleem@b... on Wed, 23 Jan 2002 14:01:38
Hi,

   i have a slight problem, i have a page with several links. Each of 

these links, when selected, dynamically create a a form that displays 7 

text boxes for each of the days in the week. Thus the first link displays 

7 text boxes for the next 7 days, the second link displays 7 text boxes 

for the next 7 days after and so on. Beside each text box i have a label 

that displays the date for that particular text box. For example;



Wed 23 Jan <Text Box>   

Wed 24 Jan <Text Box>   

Wed 25 Jan <Text Box>   

..

...

etc



Currently when i click on the first link i am only able to display text 

boxes for the next 7 days starting from todays date. However i want to be 

able to display text boxes from the first monday of the week for each 

link. For example when i click on the first link even though today is 

wednesday i want Monday and Tuesday`s text boxes being displayed instead 

of just todays and then text boxes for the remaining week. When i click on 

the second link i want to be able to display next weeks text boxes 

beginning from monday and so on.



Any ideas would be really appreciated.

Take a look at the weekday function. It returns the current day of the week

as a number. So you can force a date to a particular day of the week. For

example, to return the most recent Monday from a date:



Function GetMonday( DateToCheck )

    Dim DOW

    DOW = WeekDay(DateToCheck, vbMonday)

' DOW now contains 1-7, with 1 = Monday

' So the most recent Monday occured 1-DOW days ago

    GetMonday = DateAdd("d", (1 - DOW),DateToCheck)

End Function
