Comment on Web Based Insteon Controller – SmartLinc/NetLinc by AC

AC — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 01:05:44 +0000

I wound up writing a little windows app to give me a little more capability in terms of using the SmartLinc to control X10 devices on a timed schedule. Check it out, if you like: http://www.practical-apps.com/practical-apps/products/freeware/default.aspx

Comment on JavaScript ISO8601/RFC3339 Date Parser by Daniel

Your handling of milliseconds is wrong. You should convert the digits after the decimal to a decimal fraction and then multiply by 1000 to get milliseconds.

Here’s another shorter function:

function parseIsoDate(s){
var re=/(\d\d\d\d)\D?(\d\d)\D?(\d\d)\D?(\d\d)\D?(\d\d\D?(\d\d\.?(\d*))?)(Z|[+-]\d\d?(:\d\d)?)?/;
var a=re(s).slice(1).map(function(x,i){
if (i==6 && x) x=parseInt(x,10)/Math.pow(10,x.length)*1000; // convert to milliseconds
return parseInt(x,10)||0;
});
return new Date(
Date.UTC(a[0],a[1]-1,a[2],a[3]-(a[7]||0),a[4],a[5],a[6]));
};

Shorter function:

function parseIsoDate(s){
var d=new Date(s.slice(0,19).replace(‘T’,’ ‘)+’ GMT’);
// you can return d here if you’re willing to truncate milliseconds
var ms=s.split(/\D/)[6]; milli/micro-seconds are 7th: y,m,d,H,M,S,MS
d.setUTCMilliseconds(ms? parseInt(ms.slice(0,3),10): 0);
return d;
}

Comment on Google Analytics Date Range – Analytics Today by Brad

I hacked a few lines onto this to make it show the previous 3 calendar months prior to today. Seems to work but I didn’t test the year subtraction bit strenuously.

var url = window.location.href;
var urlParam = “&pdr=”;

var today = new Date();
var day = today.getDate().toString();
var month = (today.getMonth() + 1).toString();
var year = today.getFullYear().toString();
var start_year = today.getFullYear().toString();
var start_month = (today.getMonth() – 2).toString();
var todaysRange;

if(day < 10)
day = '0' + day;

if(month < 10)
month = '0' + month;

if(start_month < 1){
start_month = start_month + 12;
start_year = start_year – 1;}

if(start_month < 10)
start_month = '0' + start_month;

var todaysRange = start_year + start_month + day + '-' + year + month + day;

if(url.indexOf(urlParam) < 0)
window.location.href += '&pdr=' + todaysRange;

Thanks, this is fantastic. FWIW, I’d like to put in a vote for somehow showing the location of events in week and day views– maybe a new Tips like on the month view.

Comment on MooTools Events Calendar – Web Embeddable Javascript Calendar by Trevor Orr

I added an option for the events for make it a yearly event.

Just add yearly: true to the event.

Here is the code added to the loadCalEvents function:

eYearly = this.options.cEvents[i].yearly;
if (eYearly) {
eStart.setFullYear(this.viewStartDate.getFullYear());
eEnd.setFullYear(this.viewStartDate.getFullYear());
}

This goes right before the following line.

if((eStart >= this.viewStartDate && eStart = this.viewStartDate && eEnd <= this.viewEndDate)){
