Hello everyone. I created a date picker and coded a age calculator in velo.

$w . onReady (() => {
$w ( “#datePicker” ). onChange (() => {

    **var**  todaysDate  =  **new**  Date (). getFullYear (); // CURRENT YEAR 

    **let**  inputDate  =  $w ( "#datePicker" ). value ; //VALUE FROM DATE PICKER 
    **var**  inputDateyear  =  inputDate . getFullYear (); //YEAR PICKED FROM DATE PICKER 

    $w ( "#textElementID" ). show (); //SHOW TEXT AFTER PICKING A DATE (OPTIONAL) 

    $w ( "#textElementID" ). text  =  `Çocuğunuz " ${ String ( todaysDate  -  Number ( inputDateyear ))} " yaşında.` ;  //DESIGN YOUR MESSAGE 

})

})

this is my current code. When user selects a date, it will show “you are … years old.”

But i want to convert it to = “you are … years, … months, … days old.”

How can i convert it? Can you guys help me?

$w("#textElementID").text = `Hey, you are ${String(todaysDate - Number(inputDateyear))} days old.`;

Works?

Nope, it still only says hey, you are for example 4 years old when i choose 2018. I want to convert it to = for example, “You are 4 years, 5 months and 20 days old”. I want to add month and days to it. Thanks for quick response!

Ok, now i understood your problem.

You have problems to work with TIME and DATES, like the most right?

Already heard something about MOMENT-NPM ??

Maybe you want to learn more about it.

Or you go traditional way…

see following posts and learn the handling with dates and times)…
