i'm using ASP with MSAccess as database.
i have two buttons and two textbox in my page.
when i press my first button (First month) i need to display the current month in one textbox and last one months date in another textbox.
and while pressing the second button (submit) i need to display the date displayed in the textbox as itself and the records between thoses two dates. if that date is still there in the textbox only i can sort the records.
in vbScript i tried to display the current date and last months date like this.

<script language="VBScript">
sub onemonth()
form1.datefrom.value = dateadd("m",-1,date())
form1.dateto.value = date()
end sub
</script>

so any idea how to write this function in javascript.....
if you know please help me.
Thanks in advance... sub onemonth() form1.datefrom.value = dateadd("m",-1,date()) form1.dateto.value = date() end sub

You don't need Javascript at all to do it. This can be done purely with ASP.

Response.Write "<input name=""datefrom"" type=""text"" size=""10"" value=""" & dateAdd ("m", -1, Date()) & """ />"
Response.Write "<input name=""dateto"" type=""text"" size=""10"" value=""" & Date() & """ />"

This will spit out two input fields with the values you want. Just put that ASP code where you want the fields (and any other stuff.)

but the problem is that i'm able to display current months and last months date in textbox using the Asp as u said.
but if i press another button, i need the content in that text to display again in that text and display the records.
if two textbox contain the currentdate and last months date and someone changed that date before pressing the button, then that new date should be displayed, instead of current month and last month.
and like last month i have 3month,6months button also. so what ever there in textbox, that i need to display again in that textbox to sort that record with those two dates.
any idea... if you have anyidea please help me.
thanks in advance

Oh, I see what you mean.

If you mess with this script enough, you'll be able to get what you want.
