Finally ! What you see is what you mean
I was looking for a good and clean editor for one of my customers, and I end up to WYMeditor !
That's the way I like, that's the way I meant !
Add days to a date in javascript
shiftDay = 10
var myDate = new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getUTCDate() + shiftDay)
day = myDate.getUTCDate()
month = myDate.getUTCMonth()*1 + 1
year = myDate.getUTCFullYear()
This code is quite easy:
- shiftDay hold the number of days you want to add, if you need to go backwards you can set it to a negative value.
- myDate is set to the current date
- At the end we will have the data we need in day, month and year.
- getUTCMonth return the current month shifted back by one (January is 0, February is 1 and so on) that's why we add 1. We multiply the value returned by getUTCMonth by one to cast it to integer.
Salone del Mobile | Esterni party
Also in Milano sometime we get good parties, like the Esterni party for the Salone del Mobile 2007.
Esterni party - Salone del mobile 2007
Get last day of the month with Ruby
last_day_of_the_month = (Date.parse(year_to_process + "-" + (month_to_process.to_i + 1).to_s + "-01") - 1).mday().to_s rescue "31"
The final rescue is due to catch the error when month_to_process is 12.
