Webmaster Forum / HTML, CSS, Scripts / JavaScript / April 2005

Actually, here's the lump of javascript that the form uses, you can see some
Javascript that I tried to make sure one date wasn't before the other...but
it didn't work!?

------------

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
       function doCheckAvail(){
           if(validateFields()){
               var form = document.myForm;

               //collect your screen data
               var arrDay = form.ARRIVAL_DAY.value;
               var arrMon = form.ARRIVAL_MONTH.value;
               var arrYear = form.ARRIVAL_YEAR.value;
               var depDay = form.DEPARTURE_DAY.value;
               var depMon = form.DEPARTURE_MONTH.value;
               var depYear = form.DEPARTURE_YEAR.value;
               var adult = form.ADULTS.value;
               var child = form.CHILDREN.value;

               var chainCode = "vones";
               var hotelCode = "<%= TheHotelCode %>";
               var email = "<%= TheHotelEmail %>";
               var website = "http%3a%2f%2fwww.<%= TheHotelWebsite %>";
               var barServer =
"https://agent.synxis.com/bar/BarServlet?selector=Login";

               //start creating the url
               var url = barServer+
                         "&cid="+chainCode+ //your chain code
                         "&hid="+hotelCode+ //your hotel code
                         "&hea="+email+  //your hotel contact email
                         "&url="+website+ //your hotel website
                         "&locale=en_GB"+  //the locale you are in
                         "&checkAvailability=true"+  //alerts that you are
going to the room page
                         "&bam="+arrMon+ //arrival month
                         "&bad="+arrDay+ //arrival day
                         "&bay="+arrYear+ //arrival year
                         "&bdm="+depMon+ //departure month
                         "&bdd="+depDay+ //departure day
                         "&bdy="+depYear+ //departure year
                         "&noa="+adult+ //# of adults
                         "&noc="+child; //# of children

                //now pop-up the new window with this url.
                document.location = url;
//                 window.open(url, "BAR",
"width=778,height=600,status=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes");
           }
           else{
               alert("You must enter valid information");
           }
       }

       function validateFields() {

 // ASH: Concatenate the two dates into single variables - OR AT LEAST
TRY!!!
//  var form = document.myForm;

//   var arrDay = parseInt(form.ARRIVAL_DAY.value);
//   var arrMon = parseInt(form.ARRIVAL_MONTH.value);
//   var arrYear = parseInt(form.ARRIVAL_YEAR.value);

//   var depMon = parseInt(form.DEPARTURE_MONTH.value);
//   var depYear = parseInt(form.DEPARTURE_YEAR.value);

//    var TheFromDate = arrDay+"/"+arrMon+"/"+arrYear
//    var TheToDate = depDay+"/"+depMon+"/"+depYear

//     if (TheFromDate) > (TheToDate) {
//     alert('The Date of Arrival must be prior to the Date of Departures')
//     alert(TheFromDate+" & "+TheToDate)
//     }

           return true;
       }
