I need a list of 'Coming Events' in date-order for a web-site, so have created one in Excel, and saved the result as an 'xml'-file.

So far, so good. However, ideally the list would automatically delete events occurring on a date earlier than the current date.

Is it possible to configure the list to produce that result ?

as the file is a text file using a bit of code find todays date. then any text line date < todays date do not display or delete the number of lines till the next text line date

<html>
<body>

<script type="text/javascript">

document.write(Date());

</script>

</body>
</html>

---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date() ---------------------------------------------------------------

And in the following example we set a Date object to be 7 days into the future:

var myDate=new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate()+7);

--------------------------------------------display time----------------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function startTime()
{
var today=new Date();
var h=today.getHours();
var m=today.getMinutes();
var s=today.getSeconds();
// add a zero in front of numbers<10
m=checkTime(m);
s=checkTime(s);
document.getElementById('txt').innerHTML=h+":"+m+":"+s;
t=setTimeout('startTime()',500);
}

function checkTime(i)
{
if (i<10)
{
i="0" + i;
}
return i;
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="startTime()">
<div id="txt"></div>
</body>
</html>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

convert date() to a string or convert text date to a date then compare


hope this helps david
