Setting TextBox text as current year

Question

I am trying to set a Readonly textbox2 text property to current year. I am trying to set textbox2 text by using onchange() property on an above textbox1, this way after changing textbox2 text will be asigned as current year. Now the problem is, I have no idea how to work with date formats in jquery is to. Here I am doing it like this $("#<%=FromYear.ClientID%>").val(Date.now); but its not giving me year.

if you want to set text property as year you need to write it .Text() instead of val() — ABi, Aug 09 '16 at 21:37

You need Date() function to use.

Example:

$("#id.ClientID").val(new Date().getfullYear());

OR

$("#id.ClientID").val(new Date().getYear());

Date.now will return the function code of the Date.now() function:

console.log(Date.now);
> function () { [native code] }

You want Date.getFullYear()

$("#<%=FromYear.ClientID%>").val(Date.getFullYear());

$(document).ready(function(){

var today=new Date();

$('#DispalyDate').text("Full date=" + today.toDateString()); 
$('#FullYear').text("Full year=" + today.getFullYear()); 
$('#DayOfMonth').text("Day=" + today.getDate()); 
$('#GetMonth').text("Number of month=" + today.getMonth()); 

 });

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="DispalyDate"> </div>
<div id="FullYear"> </div>
<div id="DayOfMonth"> </div>
<div id="GetMonth"> </div>
