I am trying to work on something very simple in Javascript. I need the script to print out the date in the following format: yyyymmdd/yyyymmdd.

I just cant get the following script to work. It feeds a google calendar to output current Day view.

  var today = new Date();
    var dd = today.getDate();
    var mm = today.getMonth()+1; //January is 0!
    var yyyy = today.getFullYear();

    if(dd<10){dd='0'+dd} if(mm<10){mm='0'+mm} today = yyyy+''+mm+''+dd;



    document.write ('<iframe src="https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?

        showTitle=0&amp;dates=today"/"today&amp;mode=DAY&amp;height=1200&amp;wkst=1&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;bgcolor

=%23FFFFFF&amp;src=my cal source&amp;color=%23711616&amp;ctz=Etc%2FGMT" style=" border:solid 

1px #777 " width="950" height="715"frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>');

    The problem is string concatenation. You have to tell to JS what is a string and what is variable to add. Update your code as below:

    document.write( '<iframe src="https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&amp;dates='
    + today + '/' + today +
    '&amp;mode=DAY&amp;height=1200&amp;wkst=1&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=my cal source&color=%23711616&ctz=Etc%2FGMT" style=" border:solid 1px #777 " width="950" height="715"frameborder="0" scrolling="no">' )
