On the Add/Edit pages I would like to make sure that the date picked by the user is equal to the current day and no later than 1 year from then.

Something like this:

http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/#min-max


I found this but its for PHPRunner and my php skills are a bit rusty:

My second question is when on the Add/Edit page. If someone selects Other from a drop down field would it be possible to have a textbox or textarea appear? Or maybe there can be a textarea and it is disabled or readonly until the user selects Other in the dropdown.
Any help would be great and thanks so much for the support of an amazing product.

While we don't have an option to limit date range in datepicker you can validate dates in events like BeforeAdd and BeforeEdit.
Current date - Now()

One year from now - DateAdd("yyyy",1,Now())

if CDate(values("DateField)) > DateAdd("yyyy",1,Now()) then

BeforeAdd = false

else

BeforeAdd = true

end if

Answering your second question - here is an example of doing this. Make is a dropdown box, Model is text box which will be hidden if Audi is selected as a Make.

var ctrl = Runner.getControl(pageid, 'Make');
ctrl.on('change', function(e, argsArr){
var ctrl1 = Runner.getControl(pageid, 'Model');

if (this.getValue()=='Audi')

ctrl1.hide();

else

ctrl1.show();
},{args: ['newValue']});

The top one worked perfectly, thanks!
Where do I put the code for the javascript part?
Thank you for the quick reply.

Forgot to mention that. Javascript code needs to be placed to 'Javascript OnLoad' event of Add/Edit pages.

How would I also hide the label for that Model text box?
Thank you!
