[Solved] WebFOCUS Calendars - Validate Number of Days Selected

I have 2 IBI Calendars in an HTML.
I already have a routine to validate that the END date is Greater than the Start Date.

However, I need to validate that the User can only select 30 days. I already have the calendars limited to only the last 90 days, but within those 90 days, the user should only be able to select up to a 30 day period.

My plan is to use an event check when the user SUBMITs the reprot.

You can convert the dates to Date-objects.

That's easy if they're RFC2822 or ISO8601 format date strings, you can just let Javascript parse the string (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/parse).
If not, you can do it with some regexp magic.

With 2 Date objects you can calculate the number of milliseconds between the two dates at the UTC time-zone, which can be converted to number of days.

After that it's just a matter of returning true (accepted) or false (not accepted) in the onsubmit handler.
