Hi everyone,

Another interesting problem. I have created different forms and I want to restrict the user so that he/she can only select past dates. How can I achieve this in power pages?

@Lucas001 @saudali_25 any thoughts? Thanks!

Kind Regards,

Hafiz

Hi @Anonymous ,

Just add validation using JavaScript on select of date. There is no OOB way available. Recently, I worked on a form where I had to check user data if user is over 18 to submit the request, I did it using JavaScript.

Feel free to ask, if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Saud

You can disable dates via JavaScript/JQuery. Note, this snippets below only apply to the picker, if you allow the user to manually type the date into the Input field you will need to apply additional validation

// these would be inside a jQuery document.ready // disable dates in the past $("#your_fieldname").next().data("DateTimePicker").minDate(moment()) // disable dates in the future (5 days in this example) $("#your_fieldname").next().data("DateTimePicker").maxDate(moment().add(5,'days'))

You'll find some other date picker snippets on this link post https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussions/Date-Picker-modified-through-javascript-fails-required-field/m-p/1937874#M1916
