I was hoping you could help me with how to get the 22nd day of the previous month based on the current month you are in. Then, I would like to create a DataChooser and set it's start date to this date.

How to get the number of days in "month"?
I am trying to find a way to use the date object to check the day of the month. If is the 23rd then play if not, do nothing. I looked at the date countdown tutorial, but I don't need to display the information just check the date. even if I hid the countdown info, once I hit the 23rd I am out of luck till the first of the next month, the "alarm" stays. Think of what I need as a date alarm, if it is the 23rd the alrm goes off, if it is not, then it is business as usual (this is tied into an analog clock that is supposed to have a monthly reminder for the 23rd). Getting the clock to work was cake, but I just can't get this "alarm" to work for me.

View 1 RepliesI have this huge thing of actionscript (See below) which I wrote my self and unsurprisingly it has some problems, it is meant to get the day, date and month values and switch them to get the text equivilent of that integer.

how can I set a default date (day month year) to a dateField component?
I want to load date from a xml file, and show it on the component, and ofcourse, let the user change it...
On the DateChooser component, it shows the days for only the current month... but i'd like to show some of the previous month's days and some of the next month's days.Is there a property to set on the DateChooser component to show 42 days. I mean, to show some of the previous month's days + the current month's days + some of the next month's days. I'm not sure what this is called...If you look at a typical month calendar, for example for June 2011 it shows:
S M T W Th F Sa
20 30 31 1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8 9 10 11
[code].....
Is there a property that I've overlooked which shows some of the days from the prev. month and next month in the current month view? Or would I need to extend the DateChooser component and override a method?
I was wondering if there is a function/method to get next and previous date of a selected day
something like getpreviousday hh or something? All I could find is function that people created themselves, I thought maybe there is already a built-in function.
can the date object be used to determine the calendar dates of the days preceding and following today?i.e.- if i use the date object to return that today is Wednesday, October 10, can i use it to determine that yesterday was October 11 and Tomorrow is October 12?I need to be able to do this for a custom application that displays info per MTWTF..i need to be able to have it automatically display real calendar dates (so it knows if it's the 31st or 28th or whatever and the next day is the 1st).

I have an mx:DateField in my Flex UI that has a formatString="dd.mm.yyyy" attached to it. However, the initial value for that field may not be in the format specified/defined for the DateField (due to legacy reasons). So, currently, if I just set that value (text) on the DateField, the field is shown empty. I think because it fails to accept the value in a format different than what's configured.
