Due date Calculator

Hi,

Im on the hunt for a ‘due date’ calculator but one I can alter to due time to 31 days, the more customisable the better,

eg.
Drop down boxes for the month/day etc and a button to say ‘today’ would be superb. and button to generate date on same page or new page?

I have found alot of online calculators that do this, but don’t know how to code for my self.

The site it will go on is www.lopsandpigs.co.uk for working out due dates of rabbits!!

Am i chasing a lost cause for something so custom or not.

All help/advice welcome,
(ps i’m not a hard coder, I can see where the obvious parts to change are but that is it!)

Many Thanks.

Re: Due date Calculator

Here is some info on a jquery datepicker you could then have your user pick the date and add your 31 days to it and display the due date.

Re: Due date Calculator

You might look at zem_event for a plugin option.

Re: Due date Calculator

I was under the impression you were looking for something where the visitor could enter a date and it would calculate another date using some formula. Are you just looking for a calendar to track events?

Hi,

yes you are correct, I think zem_cart is not what Im looking for, I will have look at jquery calendar.
