Field Validation HELP!

[Monie]

I am designing a room reservation in my college...
The rule of the booking is, it only allows booking at most one week ahead.

For example, let say today is 09/11/2004,
You can only book for a room from 09/11/2004 to 15/11/2004. That is a 1 week range. When you want to book at the 16/11/2004, the page will alert that you cannot make booking more than 1 week.The date format is dd/mm/yyyy.

How can I make the form in my asp page or a field in my form
to accept only the one week period of time from the date the booking is made when the form is submitted? Any idea....?

Please help me anybody.Please....
I have been searching out the code on how to do that, but I cannot understand how to code that!

Is there any popup callender picker that we can select only one week range from todays date? Could anybody help me please......

i dont know what the exact code would be but in psuedo code im sure its something like this:

Code: Select all

<select>
<option>Write todays date</option>
<option>Write todays date + 1</option>
<option>Write todays date + 2</option>
<option>Write todays date + 3</option>
<option>Write todays date + 4</option>
<option>Write todays date + 5</option>
<option>Write todays date + 6</option>
</select>

or something like that... im sure one of the more advanced programmers can help you!

Code: Select all

<select>

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--

var date = new Date();
var d  = date.getDate();
var day = (d < 10) ? '0' + d : d;
var m = date.getMonth() + 1;
var month = (m < 10) ? '0' + m : m;
var yy = date.getYear();
var year = (yy < 1000) ? yy + 1900 : yy;

thisdate = day;

for (i=0;i<7;i++) {

switch(month)
{
case 1,3,5,7,8,10:

if (thisdate > 30) {
thisdate = 1;
