Hi, I want to make a form , in which I have 4 input Fields.
When I enter date1 as 2011-04-07 and date2 as 2011-04-11
Then I require in Calender Days = 5 inclusive of date1 and date2
and Working days = 3 as SAT, SUN Off
Jump to PostYou might benefit from checking JavaScript Date object.
Jump to Postwhen user submit data, accept only from date, to_date, then in processing form , before inserting we can find working days using php/mysql syntax.
Jump to Postworking days = total days - weekend days. So we need to calculate how many weekend days there are.
I think we could use a loop something like this:
var total_days = x; //the difference you have already calculated between dates var first_day = y; //1-7 …
You might benefit from checking JavaScript Date object.
I do not want to make it so complex, I will use Just 2 Table ,
1. Table1: Leaves Balance (Employee Id, Name, Casual, Annual, Medical , Type of Employee)
2. Table2: Leave Used ( Employee Id, Leave Type, Start Date, End Date , Calender Days, Working Days)
When Ever Person apply for Leaves all info inserted in Table1 and Table2 Updated.
Example:
Table1 (Leave Balance) Before Apply
Employee Id /// Name, /// Casual /// , Annual,/// Medical , /// Type of Employee
3 /// ABC /// 10 /// 14 10 Permanent
( If Person apply from 2011-04-07 to 2011-04-11 , working days are 3 and calender Days are 5 and Mark as Annual)
When Person Apply 2 Things Must Happened
Table1 (Leave Balance) After Apply (Annual Fields Updated from 14 to 11)
Employee Id Name, Casual , Annual, Medical , Type of Employee
3 ABC 10 11 10 Permanent
And Table2 (Leave Used ) After Apply ( 1 record inserted)
Employee Id, Leave Type, Start Date , End Date , Calender Days, Working Days
3 Anual 2011-04-07 2011-04-11 5 3
Only difficulty I feel to make a form.

I have designed form , But I am confused,
Also , Is my idea is ok?
I want to do it using Jquery or Javascrip, in Below code I calculated calendar Days, How I find Working Days??? also I need to change date format from 2011,04,17 to 2011-04-17
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function days_between() {
var oneDay = 24*60*60*1000; // hours*minutes*seconds*milliseconds
var firstDate = new Date(2011,04,01);
var secondDate = new Date(2011,04,17);
var diffDays = Math.abs((firstDate.getTime() - secondDate.getTime())/(oneDay));
alert(diffDays+1);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(days_between());
</script>
</body>
</html>I use this as a date picker in my form
http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/This code is working fine but there are 2 issues
If days_between(2011,04,01,2011,04,01); it shows 0 working days even on first April its Friday
if days_between(2011,04,02,2011,04,03); means Sat and Sun, it shows 2 Calendar days , OK but one working Day.
<html>
<head>
<script lang=javascript>
function days_between(fryear,frmonth,frday,toyear,tomonth,today)
{
var oneDay = 24*60*60*1000; // hours*minutes*seconds*milliseconds
var firstDate = new Date(fryear,frmonth,frday);
var secondDate = new Date(toyear,tomonth,today);
var loopDate=new Date();
loopDate=firstDate;
var caldays=0;
var wkdays=0;
for(i=0;loopDate<=secondDate;i++)
{
caldays++;
if(!(loopDate.toGMTString().substr(0,3).toUpperCase()=='SAT'
|| loopDate.toGMTString().substr(0,3).toUpperCase()=='SUN'))
{
wkdays++;
}
loopDate =new Date(loopDate.getTime()+oneDay);
}
alert(caldays);
alert(wkdays);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<script lang=javascript>
days_between(2011,04,01,2011,04,30);

working days = total days - weekend days. So we need to calculate how many weekend days there are.
I think we could use a loop something like this:
var total_days = x; //the difference you have already calculated between dates
var first_day = y; //1-7 1 1 for monday, 7 for sunday, we need to know what it is.
var current_day = first_day; //again 1-7
var total_free_days = 0;
for(i = 0; i<=total_days; i++)
{
if((current_day >= 6) //saturday or sunday
{
total_free_days++;
if(current day == 7) //if sunday, make it monday
current_day = 1;
else currrent_day = 7; //if saturnday, make it sunday
}
else current_day++; //if workday, just make next day
}I have not tested it but I think its something like this :)
Edit: the only problem is to find what is the first day - monday or what.. But maybe that date picker can get it
I just want to check why loop is not adding correct values, also if alert Loop date it shows 1 may , may be this is issue
oh, just checked your code, its similar to mine :) you wrote your code, while I was writing my one, so that's why I didn't see earlier :)
if
alert(firstDate);it show one month plus
if
alert(firstDate);it show one month plus
probably it is because it start counting montht from zero. If you enter 0, then it shows january
there are examples http://www.w3schools.com/jS/js_obj_date.asp
var myDate=new Date();
myDate.setFullYear(2010,0,14);
var today = new Date();
if (myDate>today)
{
alert("Today is before 14th January 2010");
}
else
{
alert("Today is after 14th January 2010");
