Useful To Know

  • Format for date input is European DD.MM.YYYY (days first, not months)
  • Regexp for inserting datetimes:
    /([0,1,2,3]?[0-9])[\., \,, \-, \/]?([0,1,2][0-9])[\., \,, \-, \/]?([1,2][0-9][0-9][0-9])\s([0,1,2][0-9])[:, \., \,, \-]?([0,1,2,3,4,5][0-9])/
    So 31.02.2010, 31022010, 31/02/2010, 31-02-2010 will work.
  • Works with negative values! For example, add -1 days to 02.10.2013 will be 01.10.2013. Or span between 4.10.2010 and 1.10.2010 will be -3.
