Question

User810354248 posted

In my asp.net+vb+SQL web i have a textbox named messagebox.text. I want to check the time of server is between 6am to 6pm if yes then show a message and not to blink

f no then show another message and blink th etext in text box

i used this

VB

If theTime >= #6:00:00 PM# AndAlso theTime <= #5:59:59 PM# Then
            messagebox.Text = "Booking will be available between 6Am to 6 PM only.."
        Else
            messagebox.Text = "On Line Booling Status: Active)"
        End If

aspx

  <script src="jquery/jquery-blink.js" language="javscript" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('.blink').blink(); // default is 500ms blink interval.
        //$('.blink').blink({delay:100}); // causes a 100ms blink interval.
    });

</script>

<asp:Label ID="messagebox" class="blink" style="color: #FF0000; font-weight: 700"  runat="server"></asp:Label>

Even if the time is correct the above code is not working for me

but it blinks for both

my requirement was if the server time is between 6am to 6pm then i want to give permission to user to book/ order something

other wise show a message the booking will start at 6am-6pm only

What about add a HiddenField, you can set value with your IF, and check the value to decide if should blink or not

If theTime >= #6:00:00 PM# AndAlso theTime <= #5:59:59 PM# Then
  messagebox.Text = "Booking will be available between 6Am to 6 PM only.."
  HiddelField1.value = "1"
Else
 messagebox.Text = "On Line Booling Status: Active)"
  HiddelField1.value = "0"
End If

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
  $(document).ready(function () {
    if ($('#<%=HiddenField1.ClientID%>').val() == 0) {
      $('.blink').blink(); // default is 500ms blink interval.
    } else {
      // do whatever you want
    }
    });
</script>

Hi Baiju EP,

I want to check the time of server is between 6am to 6pm if yes then show a message and not to blink

if no then show another message and blink the text in text box

You can determine if the current time falls in 6am to 6pm and conditionally call JavaScript function to blink text from your code behind, like below.

<script>
    function lblblink() {
        $('.blink').blink();
    }
</script>

Dim start_ts As TimeSpan = New TimeSpan(6, 0, 0)
Dim end_ts As TimeSpan = New TimeSpan(18, 0, 0)
Dim Now As TimeSpan = DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay

If (Now > start_ts) And (Now < end_ts) Then
    messagebox.Text = "On Line Booling Status: Active)"
Else
    messagebox.Text = "Booking will be available between 6Am to 6 PM only.."

    ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), "BlinkLabel", "lblblink()", True)
End If

With Regards,

Fei Han

the script i placed in aspx page and used the above code. now the time clause is working as per my requirement but the blink is being done for both messages . I want the blink for time 6pm to 6am only.

<script>
    function lblblink() {
        $('.blink').blink();
    }
</script>

@Baiju EP, both samples work as your request.
If you are using Fei Han sample, you have to remove "$('.blink').blink();" call from "$(document).ready" other than blink will be called twice
