[SOLVED] Hide the Calendar Text Box AND Calendar Icon

Please download the code from here (* See note below) and run it in WebFOCUS to see that it does not hide the calendar icon along with the calendar text box. I need it to hide both when the function executes.

Here's some snippets from the above mentioned code
//Begin function HideCalendar_onclick
function HideCalendar_onclick(ctrl) {
document.getElementById("calendar1").style.visibility = "hidden";
}
//End function HideCalendar_onclick

...

<INPUT id=radio1_3 tabIndex=3 onclick=HideCalendar_onclick(this) value="Hide Calendar"...


So, can someone show me how to hide the calendar icon along with the calendar text box?

NOTE: "Save target as" then run it in WebFOCUS, otherwise you won't see what I mean (no calendar icon is displayed unless it's run in WebFOCUS)

Thanks in advance,
Doug

Doug,

Here is some JS that I have used to do exactly this before. Note that it hits every calendar control and not a single one, but it should give you the idea on how to achieve what you need.

T

function RemoveCalIcons() {
// Well, not actually remove them, just empty the inner HTML code so they don't get displayed :)
  objCal = document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT");
  for (i=0;i<objCal.length;i++) {
    objCalicon = document.getElementById(objCal[i].name+"_img");
    if (objCalicon) {
      objCalicon.innerHTML = "";
    }
  }
}

Thanks Tony, I'll check it out this afternoon (That would be evening to you on the other side of the pond) and post the new code.

Doug,

I really should have downloaded and read your code first - it uses ibirls3 and not ibirls2 which is what was prevalent when I used the code I supplied above.

I'll check ibirls3 and see if there is a way or you could just enclose the calendar control in a <div> and change the display attribute - which is, quite honestly, the easier way of doing it?

Doug,

Check for a PM from me containing the code using a div to hide and show.

i've used the following JS.
 var imageArray = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
 var imageArray_len = imageArray.length;
 for (var i=0; i < imageArray_len; i++) {
 if(imageArray[i].id == "") {
  imageArray[i].style.display = "NONE";
  break;
 }
 }  

and it worked.
i've ID attribute for all the images i use in HTML page.
The only IMG tag without the ID attribute is this calender. So it'll be hidden.

Thanks for all the insight which I used to come up with a solution which was easily implemented using the GUI (after understanding your insight and remembering what Ed Nowacki mentioned while at Ford Motor).

What I did was to add the calendars controls and the associated labels in to a "panel" then, programatically thru the associated functions, made the panel either visible or hidden. The other controls were controlled the same way.

NOW: Wink

Thanks Again.
