Hi,
My question is is there a way to make my checkbox dymanic. I want to do this: I have a date field where by default you see the current date I have some other fields and finaly I have a Confirmation field which is "Yes/No" field. The idea is that when someone enters data with todays date or past date the confirmation field must be set to Yes and if the date is in the future the checkbox must record No! Do you have any idea how this can be done

P.S. The confirmation field can be hidden it is not mandatory to be dynamicly changing on the page!

Thanks in advance,
Pravetz

You can do this by writing a javascript on some event of the text changes.
where u have to check the date in the function and depneding on the date change the value of your check box

Yeah I know that it can be done using JavaScript, but how exacly should this script look like? Anyone???
Now I'm working on another version using an IF statement in the asp script something like:

Code:

Date = Request.Form("Date")
If Date <= Date() Then
    rs("Confirmed") = true
Else
    rs("Confirmed") = false
End If

However it is not working right

any ideas?

Ok I figured this out

it's something like this:

Code:

Date = Request.Form("Date")
rs("Date") = Date
If rs("Date") <= Date() Then
    rs("Confirmed") = true
Else
    rs("Confirmed") = false
End If

I am pasing only the code that is involved with my question so it may be a little confusing.
