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
