[Solved] How to Convert RadScheduler start Format to edit an Appointment in New RadWindow

[Avinash]

I am Using  Telerik V2008.3 1314 .

I am Using Radwindow to edit or Create an Appointment. But i have Problems with the start time Query Parameter.

The javascript on radscheduler is 

var start = formatDate(eventArgs.get_startTime());

for the above, i am getting the start time as 200903160200 where as my PC time is 12:52 pm

So how to get the exact time as clicked on the scheduler and convert to DateTime Object at serverside.?

Hello Avinash,

You should call the format method of the start time object:

function OnClientAppointmentInserting(sender, eventArgs)
        {
            //Using the format() method creates a string from the start time object
            //which can be parsed on the server with:
            //DateTime start = DateTime.Parse(startTimeString);
            var start = eventArgs.get_startTime().format("yyyy/MM/dd hh:mm")
        }

Let us know how it goes.

It was resolved on the next day.

I did the formatting of date param but the problem is The StartTime Query param is in UTC format.And i confused by comparing with the system time instead of the appointment time.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi Avinash.
The correct format s/b this:

format("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm")

this will turn 2PMin 14:00, yours would return 2:00 for 2pm and 2am

We are migrating from Q1 2008 to Q3 2009 version.
Before migration i am getting proper value in "eventArgs.get_startTime().format("yyyy/MM/dd hh:mm");"

If i had clicked on 12:00AM i am gtting proepr answer 2010/01/11 12:00. But now after migartion if i clicked on 12:00Am in scheduler control i am getting 2010/01/11 08:00.
I am getting always 8:00 hours difference. Time zone i had set is EST.

Before formating the get_startTime() i am getting
Mon Jan 11 08:00:00 EST 2010 and after formating 2010/01/11 08:00. But as mentioned i clicked on 12:00 To 12:30 Slot and i am getting 8:00 to 8:30 slot
Please let me know if i have to set any other proeprty.
Below mentioned is my settings for RadScheduler

<DayView WorkDayStartTime="09:00:00" WorkDayEndTime="17:00:00" />

</telerik:RadScheduler>

Hi Raj,

This problem occurs because you set DayStartTime="00:00:00" and DayEndTime="23:59:59". Please, set ShowFullTime="true" instead.
