Hello,

My issue is that I have a month picker in html, that is

HTML

<input type="month" id="mymonth">

and a textbox that is

HTML

<input type="text" id="mymonth2">

I want to select a month from month picker and set the value to mymonth2 as 2021-April for example but I get it as 2021-04.

Please help.

What I have tried:

JavaScript

$("#mymonth").change(function(){
      var mymonth = $(this).val();
      $("#mymonth2").val(mymonth);
    });

Solution 1

you can use the following code:

const monthNames = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
  "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"
];

formatDate = function(d) {
	return d.getFullYear()+"-"+monthNames[d.getMonth()]
}


$("#mymonth").change(function(){
      var mymonth = $(this).val();
      $("#mymonth2").val(formatDate(mymonth));
});

Thanks a lot, just modified a bit
formatDate = function(d) {
var dd = new Date(d);
return dd.getFullYear()+"-"+monthNames[dd.getMonth()]
}
