I am quite new to using Selenium IDE. I am trying to create a suite of regression scripts to use within our department. I am trying to figure out how to enter todays date + 180 days into a field using a JavaScript function.
Could anyone enlighten me as how to write that function? I am in the process of learning JavaScript but it is a long old process!
If you need any more information, just ask.
Thanks for your help in advance!

Simple JS solution will be something like,
var now = new Date();
var date = new Date(new Date().setMilliseconds(now.getMilliseconds() + (24000 * 180 * 60 * 60)));
console.log(now);
console.log(date);
This should print something like,
Mon Jan 19 2015 12:26:21 GMT-0500 (EST)
Sat Jul 18 2015 12:26:21 GMT-0400 (EDT)
Thanks for the replies. I have managed to get what i needed from the following JS:
Selenium.prototype.doTypeTenantDate = function(locator){
var dates = new Date();
dates.setDate(dates.getDate() + 180);
var day = dates.getDate();
if (day < 10){
day = '0' + day;
}
month = dates.getMonth() + 1;
if (month < 10){
month = '0' + month;
}
var year = dates.getFullYear();
var prettyDay = day + '/' + month + '/' + year;
this.doType(locator, prettyDay);
};

Closed 12 months ago.
I am trying to get JavaScript to display tomorrows date in format (dd-mm-yyyy)
I have got this script which displays todays date in format (dd-mm-yyyy)
var currentDate = new Date()
var day = currentDate.getDate()
var month = currentDate.getMonth() + 1
var year = currentDate.getFullYear()
document.write("<b>" + day + "/" + month + "/" + year + "</b>")
Displays: 25/2/2012 (todays date of this post)
But how do I get it to display tomorrows date in the same format i.e. 26/2/2012
I tried this:
var day = currentDate.getDate() + 1
However I could keep +1 and go over 31 obviously there are not >32 days in a month
Been searching for hours but seems to be no answer or solution around this?
This should fix it up real nice for you.
If you pass the Date constructor a time it will do the rest of the work.
24 hours 60 minutes 60 seconds 1000 milliseconds
var currentDate = new Date(new Date().getTime() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
var day = currentDate.getDate()
var month = currentDate.getMonth() + 1
var year = currentDate.getFullYear()
document.write("<b>" + day + "/" + month + "/" + year + "</b>")
One thing to keep in mind is that this method will return the date exactly 24 hours from now, which can be inaccurate around daylight savings time.
Phil's answer work's anytime:
var currentDate = new Date();
currentDate.setDate(currentDate.getDate() + 1);
The reason I edited my post is because I myself created a bug which came to light during DST using my old method.
The JavaScript Date class handles this for you
var d = new Date(2012, 1, 29) // month is 0-based in the Date constructor
console.log(d.toLocaleDateString())
// Wed Feb 29 2012
d.setDate(d.getDate() + 1)
console.log(d.toLocaleDateString())
// Thu Mar 01 2012
console.log(d.getDate())
// 1
Method Date.prototype.setDate() accepts even arguments outside the standard range and changes the date accordingly.
function getTomorrow() {
const tomorrow = new Date();
tomorrow.setDate(tomorrow.getDate() + 1); // even 32 is acceptable
return `${tomorrow.getFullYear()}/${tomorrow.getMonth() + 1}/${tomorrow.getDate()}`;
}
Using JS only(Pure js)
Today
new Date()
//Tue Oct 06 2020 12:34:29 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
new Date(new Date().setHours(0, 0, 0, 0))

new Date(new Date().setHours(0, 0, 0,0)).toLocaleDateString('fr-CA')
//"2020-10-06"
Tomorrow
new Date(+new Date() + 86400000);
//Wed Oct 07 2020 12:44:02 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
new Date(+new Date().setHours(0, 0, 0, 0) + 86400000);
//Wed Oct 07 2020 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
new Date(+new Date().setHours(0, 0, 0,0)+ 86400000).toLocaleDateString('fr-CA')
//"2020-10-07"
//don't forget the '+' before new Date()
Day after tomorrow
Just multiply by two ex:- 2*86400000
You can find all the locale shortcodes from https://stackoverflow.com/a/3191729/7877099
I would use the DateJS library. It can do exactly that.
http://www.datejs.com/
The do the following:
var d = new Date.today().addDays(1).toString("dd-mm-yyyy");
Date.today() - gives you today at midnight.
The below uses a combination of Roderick and Phil's answers with two extra conditionals that account for single digit months/days.
Many APIs I've worked with are picky about this, and require dates to have eight digits (eg '02022017'), instead of the 6 or 7 digits the date class is going to give you in some situations.
function nextDayDate() {
// get today's date then add one
var nextDay = new Date();
nextDay.setDate(nextDay.getDate() + 1);
var month = nextDay.getMonth() + 1;
var day = nextDay.getDate();
var year = nextDay.getFullYear();
if (month < 10) { month = "0" + month }
if (day < 10) { day = "0" + day }
return month + day + year;
}
Use cases :
Date.tomorrow() // 1 day next
Date.daysNext(1) // alternative Date.tomorrow()
Date.daysNext(2) // 2 days next.
IF "tomorrow " is not depend of today but of another Date different of Date.now(), Don't use static methods but rather you must use non-static :
i.e: Fri Dec 05 2008
var dec5_2008=new Date(Date.parse('2008/12/05'));
dec5_2008.tomorrow(); // 2008/12/06
dec5_2008.tomorrow().day // 6
dec5_2008.tomorrow().month // 12
dec5_2008.tomorrow().year //2008
dec5_2008.daysNext(1); // the same as previous
dec5_2008.daysNext(7) // next week :)
API :
Dateold=Date;function Date(e){var t=null;if(e){t=new Dateold(e)}else{t=new Dateold}t.day=t.getDate();t.month=t.getMonth()+1;t.year=t.getFullYear();return t}Date.prototype.daysNext=function(e){if(!e){e=0}return new Date(this.getTime()+24*60*60*1e3*e)};Date.prototype.daysAgo=function(e){if(!e){e=0}return Date.daysNext(-1*e)};Date.prototype.tomorrow=function(){return this.daysNext(1)};Date.prototype.yesterday=function(){return this.daysAgo(1)};Date.tomorrow=function(){return Date.daysNext(1)};Date.yesterday=function(){return Date.daysAgo(1)};Date.daysNext=function(e){if(!e){e=0}return new Date((new Date).getTime()+24*60*60*1e3*e)};Date.daysAgo=function(e){if(!e){e=0}return Date.daysNext(-1*e)}
Method 1: If you don't have problem in using other library, then this could work for you using moment.js
moment().add('days', 1).format('L');
Method 2: Using Date.js,
<script type="text/javascript" src="date.js"></script>
var tomorrow = new Date.today().addDays(1).toString("dd-mm-yyyy");
This method uses external library and not the native Date library.
As my bootstrap-datetimepicker was using moment.js and native date library, I preferred method 1. This question mentions these and some other methods.
Its really simple:
1: Create date object with today' date and time.
2: Use date object methods to retrieve day, month and full year and concatenate them using the + operator.
Sample Code:
var my_date = new Date();
var tomorrow_date = (my_date.getDate() + 1) + "-" + (my_date.getMonth() + 1) + "-" + my_date.getFullYear();
document.write(tomorrow_date);
function getMonday(d)
{
// var day = d.getDay();
var day = #Config.WeekStartOn
diff = d.getDate() - day + (day == 0 ? -6 : 0);
return new Date(d.setDate(diff));
}
The same as the original answer, but in one line:
var tomorrow = new Date(Date.now() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
The numbers stand for 24 hours 60 minutes 60 seconds 1000 milliseconds.
you can try this:
function Tomorrow(date=false) {
var givendate = (date!=false) ? new Date(date) : new Date();
givendate.setDate(givendate.getDate() + 1);
var day = givendate.getUTCDate()
var month = givendate.getUTCMonth()+1
var year = givendate.getUTCFullYear()
result ="<b>" + day + "/" + month + "/" + year + "</b>";
return result;
}
var day = Tomorrow('2020-06-30');
console.log('tomorrows1: '+Tomorrow('2020-06-30'));
console.log('tomorrows2: '+Tomorrow());
//to get date of tomorrow
let tomorrow=new Date(`${(new Date()).getFullYear()}-${(new Date()).getMonth()+1}-${(new Date()).getDate()+1}`);
//for dd-mm-yy format
tomorrow=`${tomorrow.getDate()}-${tomorrow.getMonth()+1}-${((tomorrow.getFullYear()).toString()).slice(-2)}`;
document.write(tomorrow)
//-----------Date Configuration march 18,2014----------------------
//alert(DateFilter);
var date = new Date();
y = date.getFullYear(), m = date.getMonth();
var EndDate = new Date();
switch (DateFilter) {
case 'today': var StartDate = EndDate; //todays date
break;
case 'yesterday':
var d = new Date();
var previousDate = new Date(d.getTime() - 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
var StartDate = new Date(previousDate.yyyymmdd()); //yesterday Date
break;
case 'tomorrow':
var d = new Date();
var NextDate = new Date(d.getTime() + 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);

break;
case 'custom': //var StartDate = $("#txtFromDate").val();
break;
default:
var d = new Date();
var StartDate = new Date(d.getTime() - 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000); //one month ago date from now.
}
if (DateFilter != "custom") {
var SDate = $.datepicker.formatDate('#Config.DateFormat', StartDate); $("#txtFromDate").val(SDate);

Simply! in dd.mm.yyyy format.
Date.prototype.NextDay = function (e) {

}

I have a javascript object of date and its value is:
Thu Dec 18 2014 07:29:44 GMT+0500 (PKT)
Now I want to get the time from above data object in following format:
7:29 A.M
How can I do that using javascript code.
Please Help!!
You can do a little string addition by doing the following:
var result = "";
var date = new Date();
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
var amORpm = hours > 12 ? "P.M" : "A.M";
if(hours > 12) hours -= 12;
result = hours + ":" + minutes + " " + amORpm;
console.log(result); // Will get you your desired format
I want to add month into the select date by the user.
startdate=document.getElementById("jscal_field_coverstartdate").value;
now I want to add 11 month from the above startdate. How to do that.
date format = 2013-12-01
Without the date format it is difficult to tell, however you can try like this
add11Months = function (date) {
var splitDate = date.split("-");
var newDate = new Date(splitDate[0], splitDate[1] - 1, splitDate[2]);
newDate.setMonth(newDate.getMonth() + 11);
splitDate[2] = newDate.getDate();
splitDate[1] = newDate.getMonth() + 1;
splitDate[0] = newDate.getFullYear();
return startdate = splitDate.join("-");
}
var startdate = add11Months("2013-12-01");
alert(startdate)
JSFiddle
If your startdate is in correct date format you can try using moment.js or Date object in javascript.
In Javascript, it can be achieved as follow:
var date = new Date("2013-12-01");
console.log(date);
//output: Sun Dec 01 2013 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
var newdate = date.setDate(date.getDate()+(11*30));
console.log(new Date(newdate));
// output: Mon Oct 27 2014 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
In above lines, I have used 30 days per month as default. So you will get exact 11 month but little deviation in date. Is this what you want ? You can play around this likewise. I hope it help :)
For more about Date you can visit to MDN.
You can do it like this:
var noOfMonths = 11
var startdate = document.getElementById("jscal_field_coverstartdate").value;
startdate.setMonth(startdate.getMonth() + noOfMonths)
Try this:
baseDate.setMonth(2);
baseDate.setDate(30);
noMonths = 11;
var sum = new Date(new Date(baseDate.getTime()).setMonth(baseDate.getMonth() + noMonths);
if (sum.getDate() < baseDate.getDate()) { sum.setDate(0); }
var m = newDate.getDate();
var d = newDate.getMonth() + 1;
var yyyy = newDate.getFullYear();
return (yyyy+"-"+m+"-"+d);
Notes:
Adding months (like adding one month to January 31st) can overflow the days field and cause the month to increment (in this case you get a date in March). If you want to add months and then overflow the date then .setMonth(base_date.getMonth()+noMonths) works but that's rarely what people think of when they talk about incrementing months.
It handles cases where 29, 30 or 31 turned into 1, 2, or 3 by eliminating the overflow
Day of Month is NOT zero-indexed so .setDate(0) is last day of prior month.
Hi I have the following problem I am converting this UNIX timestamp to javascript string for date: here is the jsfiddle for it http://jsfiddle.net/tczeU/ and as everyone can see the date is 2 6 2013 13:15:44 so the problem is that this number 1373969744 in UNIX timestamp converter is Tue, 16 Jul 2013 10:15:44 GMT The problem are that there are 14 days bwtween the two dates where does I go wrong? Please help me to convert this date. The code is as in the fiddle:
var date = new Date(1373969744*1000);
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
var seconds = date.getSeconds();
var year = date.getFullYear();
var day = date.getDay();
var month = date.getMonth();
var string =day + " " + month + " " + year + " " + hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds;
$("#view").html(string);
and the html:
<div id="view"></div>
So no errors there. Please help. Any help will be apreciated!
You are using the wrong function to get the day of the month. You are using the function that returns the day of the week, hence the 2 since it's a Tuesday. Check out http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_obj_date.asp
You need to change .getDay to .getDate and it will work just fine. Or at least it did for me using your jsFiddle link.
Also, don't forget to add one to your month so it has Jul as 7th month instead of 6th like you have it now.
