I cannot allow future date in my form built in angularjs
Here is my HTML:
<div ngCloak ng-app="laurelMoney" ng-controller="myCtrl">
<form name="userForm">
<div class="form-group">
<input type='date' id="trandate" class="form-control" ng-model="trandate" required ng-class="{ 'has-error' : userForm.trandate.$error }" />
<p ng-show="userForm.trandate.$error" class="help-block">Transaction can't be in future</p>
</div>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm btn-block" ng-click="submitForm()" type="submit">Add Transaction</a>
</form>
And my javascript isÑ
angular.module('laurelMoney', [])
.controller('myCtrl', function($scope) {
var today = new Date();
var dd = today.getDate();
var mm = today.getMonth() + 1;
var yyyy = today.getFullYear();
if (dd < 10) {
dd = '0' + dd
}
if (mm < 10) {
mm = '0' + mm
}
today = yyyy + '-' + mm + '-' + dd;
document.getElementById("trandate").setAttribute("max", today);
$scope.submitForm = function() {
if ($scope.userForm.$valid) {
alert('our form is amazing');
} else {
console.log("Error");
}
};
});
This is working fine when the calendar pops up. Future dates are all disabled. but i am able to manually change it to a future date in the date input box.
System is allowing submit for future dates also. How to go about this??
Thanks.
Well, from what I could understand from your question you're simply trying to throw a error message or disallow user to select a future date, is it right? So, here you go:
Notes:
Angular
version in plunker is completely outdated, so it may not work as you expected;ngCloak
should be ng-cloak
;attribute
in your input
to validate it;ngSubmit
to submit form, instead of ng-click
.button
if the form
is invalid
, rather than make this check in controller
;$scope.max = new Date()
and call it in your view;Here's an complete example:
(function() {
'use strict';
angular
.module('laurelMoney', [])
.controller('myCtrl', myCtrl);
myCtrl.$inject = ['$scope'];
function myCtrl($scope) {
$scope.max = new Date();
}
})();
