In the date range demo, the ending date is only restricted at one end - no earlier than the starting date. To restricted it on both end, e.g. ending date should be no earlier than the starting date and no later than 40 days after the starting date, you just need to modify the fEndPop() in the plugins.js as following:
Code:
function fEndPop(startc,endc) {
  _startc=startc;
  _endc=endc;
  var sd=fParseInput(startc.value);
  if (!sd) sd=gBegin;

  var dt = new Date(sd[0], sd[1]-1, sd[2]+40);
  var ed = [dt.getFullYear(), dt.getMonth()+1, dt.getDate()];

  fPopCalendar(endc, [sd,ed,sd]);
}

Note the new dt and ed variables we added here to calculate the ending range and pass into the fPopCalendar() call. And in the same way you can also change the starting range of the ending date to be 1 day after the starting date, e.g.
Code:
function fEndPop(startc,endc) {
  _startc=startc;
  _endc=endc;
  var sd=fParseInput(startc.value);
  if (!sd) sd=gBegin;

  var dt = new Date(sd[0], sd[1]-1, sd[2]+1);
  var eds = [dt.getFullYear(), dt.getMonth()+1, dt.getDate()];

  dt = new Date(sd[0], sd[1]-1, sd[2]+40);
  var ed = [dt.getFullYear(), dt.getMonth()+1, dt.getDate()];

  fPopCalendar(endc, [eds,ed,eds]);
}

Please refer to the HelloWorld beginner tutorial on how to use the 2nd parameter of fPopCalendar() to dynamically restrict the selectable date range.

This works great, however I found that that the second code sample ignores gEnd and allows selectable dates beyond gEnd if the new ending range exceeds it.

Is there a way for gEnd to be evaluated and set the new ending range to gEnd if var dt exceeds it?

Thank you.

Yes, it's quite easy by adding another check in the fEndPop() function, as following:
Code:
function fEndPop(startc,endc) {
  _startc=startc;
  _endc=endc;
  var sd=fParseInput(startc.value);
  if (!sd) sd=gBegin;

  var dt = new Date(sd[0], sd[1]-1, sd[2]+1);
  var eds = [dt.getFullYear(), dt.getMonth()+1, dt.getDate()];

  dt = new Date(sd[0], sd[1]-1, sd[2]+40);
  var ed= (dt>gdEnd) ? gEnd : [dt.getFullYear(), dt.getMonth()+1, dt.getDate()];

  fPopCalendar(endc, [eds,ed,eds]);
}

Note that gdEnd is the Date representation of gEnd, which is an array for easy configuration.

Thank you for your prompt response and modified code example.

I must say that your calendar software has been very easy to work with. I've been able to configure it or modify plugins.js to handle all the unique requirements specific to my application.

I'm glad I puchased it.
