Hi, me again (she ducks...)

OK, I have a function in Agenda.js to highlight a series of dates based on the duration; (see previous post regarding duration);

(It's called "fFakeSelection" because I realized that I didn't actually need to SELECT anything but the first date, if I knew the duration - It just adds events based on "Selected" colors.)

function fFakeSelection(y,m,d) {
fakeSelect = new Array()
aStartDate = new Date(gContainer.rStartYear, gContainer.rStartMonth-1, gContainer.rStartDate);
for (i = 0; i < gContainer.rDuration; i++) {
fakeSelect[2]=aStartDate.getDate();
fakeSelect[1]=aStartDate.getMonth()+1;
fakeSelect[0]=aStartDate.getFullYear();
if (fakeSelect[2]==d&&fakeSelect[1]==m&&fakeSelect[0]==y) {
//Make it look the same as SELECTED dates...
fAddEvent(fakeSelect[0], fakeSelect[1], fakeSelect[2], "", null, gcBGSelected, gcFGSelected);
}
with (aStartDate) {
setDate(getDate()+1);
}}}

This works like a charm. If I set rDuration to 14 days and my start out selection is January 11, 2006, 14 days are highlighted:

Within my HTML document, if I call fFakeSelection with a new Year, Month, and Date, it erases the previous items and loads the new 14 day period, e.g.:

rStartMonth = 12;
rStartDate= 14;
rStartYear= 2005;
fFakeSelection(rStartYear,rStartMonth,rStartDate)

I need to be able to call this function from fAfterSelected(y,m,d), though, to base it on the selected date. I've tried every combination I can think of, but it won't work. (I've even tried defining a function IN my HTML page that CALLED the agenda function with passed variables, but it didn't work either.)

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Julie

By the way, I'm using a variation on the Triplex theme, so the agenda is shared.

Thx.

Sorry about the additions, but this is a project I am actively working on right now.


I just noted in the Tutorial regarding agendas:

"Note: When sharing the agenda.js file, it's important to know that any function definition, except fHoliday(), will not be shared, which means you should NOT declare any other functions in the agenda.js. If you really need an utility function, define it in the plugins.js instead. "

I moved the function to the plugins.js file and it still works (mostly) as I said before, but even calling it directly from fAfterSelected, though it is in the same file, does not work. (I created a separate version of it that gets the m/d/y variables locally.)

Thanks,

Julie

Julie,

After looking into your request, I found you only need to add the following code in plugins.js file of the Triplex theme:
