detect when 2 calendar values changed

I am making a financial report where user choose 2 dates search_date1 and search_date2, and then a monthly report is generated.
I created first a daily report with only one calendar and when it is changed I apply some AJAX script to it and it works correctly:
var myApp = {};
myApp.search_date = "";
document.getElementById('search_date').onchange = function (e) {
if (this.value != myApp.search_date) {
var d = $("#search_date").val();
$.ajax({
...
});
}
}
Now I can't know how to detect if both calendars are changed to apply AJAX script according to their values.
EDIT
Is it correct to do the following:
var myApp = {};
myApp.search_date1 = "";
myApp.search_date2 = "";
document.getElementById('search_date1').onchange = function (e) {
if (this.value != myApp.search_date1) {
var d1 = $("#search_date1").val();
document.getElementById('search_date2').onchange = function (e) {
if (this.value != myApp.search_date2) {
var d2 = $("#search_date2").val();
$.ajax({
...
})
}
});
}
});

try this:
var temp = {
from: null,
to: null
}
document.getElementById('from').onchange = function(e){
temp.from = e.target.value;
goAjax();
}
document.getElementById('to').onchange = function(e){
temp.to = e.target.value;
goAjax();
}
function goAjax(){
if(temp.from && temp.to && new Date(temp.from) < new Date(temp.to)){
//do ajax call
console.log('valid')
}
}
<input type="date" id='from'/>
<br>
<input type="date" id='to'/>

I would have captured the change event for both elements :
$("#search_date1, #search_date2").on('change',function(){
var d1 = $("#search_date1").val();
var d2 = $("#search_date2").val();
$.ajax({...});
});

What you do in your edit may work, but it would be better (and easier) do something like this
var myApp = {};
myApp.original_search_date1 = $("#search_date1").val();
myApp.original_search_date2 = $("#search_date2").val();
myApp.search_date1 = $("#search_date1").val();
myApp.search_date2 = $("#search_date2").val();
document.getElementById('search_date1').onchange = function (e) {
if ($("#search_date1").val() != myApp.search_date1) {
myApp.search_date1 = $("#search_date1").val();
sendAjax();
}
});
document.getElementById('search_date2').onchange = function (e) {
if ($("#search_date2").val() != myApp.search_date2) {
myApp.search_date2 = $("#search_date2").val();
sendAjax();
}
});
function sendAjax() {
if (myApp.original_search_date1 !== myApp.search_date1 &&
myApp.original_search_date2 !== myApp.search_date2) {
$.ajax({
...
});
}
}

Cant you just set a variable to check if its been changed with true/false then run the script if both variables are true.
Something like,
var searchOneToggled = false,
searchTwoToggled = false;
$('#search_date_one').on('input', function() {
searchOneToggled = true;
runYourFunction();
});
$('#search_date_two').on('input', function() {
searchTwoToggled = true;
runYourFunction();
});
function runYourFunction() {
if(searchOneToggled === true && searchTwoToggled === true) {
alert('hello world');
}
}

Revealing module pattern with prototype

Te following code is fine:
var Pill = (function() {
var hideCheckPricesPill = function() {
$(HB.pillSearchBar.checkPrices).hide();
};
var hideAnyPill = function(pill) {
$(pill).hide();
};
var displaySearchBar = function() {
$("." + HB.pillSearchBar.hideSearchForm).removeClass(HB.pillSearchBar.hideSearchForm);
};
var isEditSearchPill = function(pill) {
if(pill === HB.pillSearchBar.editSearchText) {
hideCheckPricesPill();
}
else {
hideAnyPill(pill);
}
};
var isMobileSearch = function(pill) {
if(!$(pill).hasClass(HB.pillSearchBar.jsOpenMobileSearch)){
isEditSearchPill(pill);
displaySearchBar();
}
};
var addEventListenerOnPill = function(pill) {
$(pill).on('click', 'a', function() {
isMobileSearch(pill);
});
};
return {
addEventListenerOnPill: addEventListenerOnPill
}
})();
Is there a way to add a prototype functionality to one of the public functions so that it can be returned and initialized with the "new" key word?

… is not a function in javascript {custom code}

please, could somebody tell me, what he heck I am doing wrong in my syntax?
The problem starts in the statement this.form.onsubmit, where I get this.initData is not a function.
Thanks.
var Contact_Form = function(element){
this.form = element;
this.errors = new Array();
this.invalid = new Array();
this.inSent = false;
this.name = new String();
this.email = new String();
this.message = new String();
this.initData = function()
{
this.name = this.getElementValue('contact-name');
this.email = this.getElementValue('contact-email');
this.message = this.getElementValue('contact-message');
}
this.form.onsubmit = function(event)
{
event.preventDefault();
this.initData();
if(this.verifyData())
this.send();
}
this.verifyData = function()
{
if(!this.isNameLength())
this.setError('name', 'Zadejte, prosím, jméno dlouhé maximálně 30 znaků.');
if(this.isProperEmail())
{
if(!this.isEmailLength())
this.setError('email', 'Váš e-mail smí obsahovat maximálně 50 znaků.');
}
else
this.setError('email', 'Zadejte, prosím, email v korektním formátu.');
if(!this.isMessageLength())
this.setError('name', 'Zadejte, prosím, zprávu v rozsahu 1-999 znaků.');
this.doInvalidFields();
if(0 == this.errors.length)
return true;
return false;
}
this.doInvalidFields = function()
{
if(this.invalid.length > 0)
{
for(var invalid in this.invalid)
this.getElement(invalid).setAttribute('aria-invalid', true);
}
}
this.setError = function(field, message)
{
this.errors.push(message);
this.invalid.push(field);
}
this.getElementValue = function(element) {
return this.getElement(element).value;
}
this.getElement = function(element) {
return document.getElementById(element);
}
this.getElementName = function() {
return this.getElement('contact-name');
}
this.getElementEmail = function() {
return this.getElement('contact-email');
}
this.getElementMessage = function() {
return this.getElement('contact-message');
}
this.isNameLength = function(){
return this.isLength(this.name, 1, 30);
}
this.isEmailLength = function(){
return this.isLength(this.email, 1, 50);
}
this.isMessageLength = function(){
return this.isLength(this.email, 1, 999);
}
this.isProperEmail = function() {
return this.email.match(/^(?:\w){1,100}#{1}(?:\w){1,100}(?:.){1}(?:\w){1,10}$/ig);
}
this.isLength = function isLength(string, _min, _max) {
if(string.length >= _min && string.length <= _max)
return true;
return false;
}
}
window.onload = function()
{
new Contact_Form(document.forms[0]);
}

The problem is that this is not inherited, and has a different value inside each function.
Then, use
var Contact_Form = function(element){
/* ... */
var that = this;
/* Here this===that */
this.form.onsubmit = function(event)
{
/* Here this===that.form */
event.preventDefault();
that.initData();
if(that.verifyData())
this.send();
}
/* ... */
}

this is referring to the form in the onsubmit handler. You could assign this to a local variable, or bind the handler to the correct this with Function.prototype.bind, ie:
this.form.onsubmit = function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
this.initData();
if(this.verifyData())
this.send();
}.bind(this)
or with jQuery.proxy
this.form.onsubmit = $.proxy(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
this.initData();
if(this.verifyData())
this.send();
}, this);
Both examples are forcing the this context of the function to be the instance of a Contact_Form whenever the handler is called

Javascript callback managment

I'm having trouble with designing a class which exposes its actions through callbacks. Yes my approach works for me but also seems too complex.
To illustrate the problem I've drawn the following picture. I hope it is useful for you to understand the class/model.
In my approach, I use some arrays holding user defined callback functions.
....
rocket.prototype.on = function(eventName, userFunction) {
this.callbacks[eventName].push(userFunction);
}
rocket.prototype.beforeLunch = function(){
userFunctions = this.callbacks['beforeLunch']
for(var i in userFunctions)
userFunctions[i](); // calling the user function
}
rocket.prototype.lunch = function() {
this.beforeLunch();
...
}
....
var myRocket = new Rocket();
myRocket.on('beforeLunch', function() {
// do some work
console.log('the newspaper guys are taking pictures of the rocket');
});
myRocket.on('beforeLunch', function() {
// do some work
console.log('some engineers are making last checks ');
});
I'm wondering what the most used approach is. I guess I could use promises or other libraries to make this implementation more understandable. In this slide using callbacks is considered evil. http://www.slideshare.net/TrevorBurnham/sane-async-patterns
So, should I use a library such as promise or continue and enhance my approach?

var Rocket = function () {
this.timer = null;
this.velocity = 200;
this.heightMoon = 5000;
this.goingToMoon = true;
this.rocketStatus = {
velocity: null,
height: 0,
status: null
};
this.listener = {
};
}
Rocket.prototype.report = function () {
for (var i in this.rocketStatus) {
console.log(this.rocketStatus[i]);
};
};
Rocket.prototype.on = function (name,cb) {
if (this.listener[name]){
this.listener[name].push(cb);
}else{
this.listener[name] = new Array(cb);
}
};
Rocket.prototype.initListener = function (name) {
if (this.listener[name]) {
for (var i = 0; i < this.listener[name].length; i++) {
this.listener[name][i]();
}
return true;
}else{
return false;
};
}
Rocket.prototype.launch = function () {
this.initListener("beforeLaunch");
this.rocketStatus.status = "Launching";
this.move();
this.initListener("afterLaunch");
}
Rocket.prototype.move = function () {
var that = this;
that.initListener("beforeMove");
if (that.goingToMoon) {
that.rocketStatus.height += that.velocity;
}else{
that.rocketStatus.height -= that.velocity;
};
that.rocketStatus.velocity = that.velocity;
if (that.velocity != 0) {
that.rocketStatus.status = "moving";
}else{
that.rocketStatus.status = "not moving";
};
if (that.velocity >= 600){
that.crash();
return;
}
if (that.rocketStatus.height == 2000 && that.goingToMoon)
that.leaveModules();
if (that.rocketStatus.height == that.heightMoon)
that.landToMoon();
if (that.rocketStatus.height == 0 && !that.goingToMoon){
that.landToEarth();
return;
}
that.report();
that.initListener("afterMove");
that.timer = setTimeout(function () {
that.move();
},1000)
}
Rocket.prototype.stop = function () {
clearTimeout(this.timer);
this.initListener("beforeStop");
this.velocity = 0;
this.rocketStatus.status = "Stopped";
console.log(this.rocketStatus.status)
this.initListener("afterStop");
return true;
}
Rocket.prototype.crash = function () {
this.initListener("beforeCrash");
this.rocketStatus.status = "Crashed!";
this.report();
this.stop();
this.initListener("afterCrash");
}
Rocket.prototype.leaveModules = function () {
this.initListener("beforeModules");
this.rocketStatus.status = "Leaving Modules";
this.initListener("afterModules");
}
Rocket.prototype.landToMoon = function () {
this.initListener("beforeLandToMoon");
this.rocketStatus.status = "Landing to Moon";
this.goingToMoon = false;
this.initListener("afterLandToMoon");
}
Rocket.prototype.landToEarth = function () {
this.initListener("beforeLandToEarth");
this.stop();
this.rocketStatus.status = "Landing to Earth";
this.initListener("afterLandToEarth");
}
Rocket.prototype.relaunch = function () {
this.initListener("beforeRelaunch");
this.timer = null;
this.velocity = 200;
this.heightMoon = 5000;
this.goingToMoon = true;
this.rocketStatus = {
velocity: 200,
height: 0,
status: "relaunch"
};
this.launch();
this.initListener("afterRelaunch");
}
init;
var rocket = new Rocket();
rocket.on("afterLaunch", function () {console.log("launch1")})
rocket.on("afterLandToMoon", function () {console.log("land1")})
rocket.on("beforeLandToEarth", function () {console.log("land2")})
rocket.on("afterMove", function () {console.log("move1")})
rocket.on("beforeLaunch", function () {console.log("launch2")})
rocket.launch();
You can add any function before or after any event.
This is my solution for this kinda problem. I am not using any special methods anything. I was just wonder is there any good practise for this like problems. I dig some promise,deferred but i just can't able to to this. Any ideas ?

Manually calling PDFJS functions. What func to call after PDFView.open to render

Can´t find in the documentation what to do next.
Calling:
PDFView.open('/MyPDFs/Pdf1.pdf', 'auto', null)
I am able to see the blank pages, the loader and also the document gets the number of pages of my PDF.
The only thing is missing is the rendering.
Does anyone knows what I should call next?
Thanks

In viewer.js I added call to updateViewarea() after the document was downloaded.
... PDFJS.getDocument(parameters).then(
function getDocumentCallback(pdfDocument) {
self.load(pdfDocument, scale);
self.loading = false;
updateViewarea();
}, ...
