Fullcalendar datesSet callback - fullcalendar

I'm using https://fullcalendar.io/ library. I use it for week view. On datesSet or even dayHeaderDidMount callback when clicking on next arrow to go to next week the argument comes as expected, but then it is triggered again with the current week date as argument. Does anybody know why and how can I make this come back with the desired week as argument?
Thank you!

Moment misunderstanding utcOffset

I'm working with moment and moment-timezone and I don't get it. Can anyone explain me why this happens?
THIS (which is what I want):
moment('2018-11-28T00:00:00.000-02:00').toISOString()
Prints 2018-11-28T02:00:00.000Z
BUT:
moment('2018-11-28T00:00:00.000').zone('-02:00').toISOString()
moment('2018-11-28T00:00:00.000').utcOffset('-02:00').toISOString()
Both print 2018-11-27T23:00:00.000Z
PD: My zone is GMT+1.
Why are different? it is not supposed to be equals?
How do I set the offset (not in the constructor but with a method after I have de moment object)?
Thanks! BR
As I can see, you want to keep the existing time of day when using utcOffset method. It accepts a second parameter, which is a boolean. As the documentation says:
Passing true will keep the same local time, but at the expense of choosing a different point in Universal Time.
// "2018-11-28T02:00:00.000Z"
moment('2018-11-28T00:00:00.000').utcOffset('-02:00', true).toISOString();

Fullcalendar Start Hour Setting by the Time of Current Hour

I am trying to use Fullcalendar in AngularJS.
I somehow implemented the calendar and it works (saves data to the SQL).
However, if I click on the day in the calendar, the modal pops up and the start date shows 00:00:00 in time aspect.
My questions is how can you set the time for the hour of current time?
If it is 9AM currently, then, how can the time in the start initialize the time as 09:00:00 ?
This is what I have for the coding.
select: function(start, end) {
$('#ModalAdd #start').val(moment(start).format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'));
$('#ModalAdd #end').val(moment(end).format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'));
$('#ModalAdd').modal('show');
}
I have a feeling that it would be nice to somehow modify the code below and place it within the above code, but I am stuck on where to put it.
var time = new Time();
var h = date.getHour();
I don't know it the Time() even works (it was Date() from other source).
Please can anyone help me on initializing the hour in the Fullcalendar based on the current hour? I am looking for any advice or even a hint to solve this matter.
Thank you in advance!
You can use momentJS to add the current (local) system time to the selected day:
select: function(start, end) {
var today = moment();
start.set({ hours: today.hours(), minute: today.minutes() });
$('#ModalAdd #start').val(start.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'));
$('#ModalAdd #end').val(end.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'));
$('#ModalAdd').modal('show');
}
See https://momentjs.com/docs/#/get-set/set/
Also it's worth mentioning that start and end are already moments, so you don't need to wrap them in the moment constructor again as you were doing before.
Another thing to consider if you do this, is whether your calendar has other views available, in particular the agenda-style views, on which selections can be made which would trigger the modal? If so, then you need to ensure that the time-manipulation code above only runs when the view is "month", because the agenda view will, by default, already use the time that the user actually chose on the calendar.

Adding Removing Columns to Datagrid in Flex with States

I was developing an app that in the first state you choose a date range using dataFields then you press a button to go to another state and generate a datagrid showing an employee list and another scrollable datagrid with its columns generated dynamically having the worked hours for every employee in every date.
The step sequence to get the error message is:
You choose a date range for example: from 01/01/2013 to 01/31/2013
You press generate button (The app change the currentState = "EmployeeList" and all is OK)
You press the back button (you return to initial state and all is OK)
If you change the date range having more days than before date range then all is OK
If you change the date range having less days than before date range then next error is reached
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

and if you google it then some results take to visit apache bug reporting site
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-22108
And there is no more...
But I found how to solve it!
To solve it first of all I was googling a lot and i looks like no one got this error and I discover that is a Flex Bug reported to Apache. And I was analyzing the original code from DataGrid.as and DataGridColumn.as to think about a possible solution and I was making some tests and nothing work.
What I did and I hope it will be useful to someone
when you click the back button, inside the backbutton_clickEventLister() and before currentState="";
I just set columns array to new Array();
protected function bttnBack_clickEventHandler(event:Event) : void {
// This code line solved it
dtGrdWorkedHours.columns = new Array();
// Make sure of code it before state change stament
currentState = "";
}

stay on current month

When I am in the month view of FullCalendar, then say I go back a few months to March and click on an event, then hit the browser 'back' button, how can I make it so that the browser knows to go back to March? Currently, it just goes back to the current month.
Thanks
Here is one possible solution:
From eventClick callback, when you redirect the user to the other page. Also send current day, month and year of the calendar in the URL.
On that page get the values from URL and store them in session variables.
This is how you can get current date of the fullCalendar:
var calCurrDate = $('#calendar').fullCalendar('getView').start;
var date = calCurrDate.getDate();
var month = calCurrDate.getMonth();
var year = calCurrDate.getFullYear();
Now on calendar page check if those session variables are defined. If they are defined, add the following properties to fullCalendar
<cfif isDefined('SESSION.d')>
<cfoutput>
date: #SESSION.d#,
month: #SESSION.m#,
year: #SESSION.y#,
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
For server side language I've used Coldfusion (as I know only this). You can easily understand the logic and translate it to your desired language.
Note: At the end of the calendar page you must destroy the session variables. Otherwise every time when you refresh the page you'll be taken to the same day, month and year.
I hope this helps. Thanks

Wrong firstdayofweek set in VB.NET

Hey on a server I am working on I am getting the wrong week day for the current day i.e today
Response.Write(WeekdayName(Weekday(System.DateTime.Now)))
I am getting Thursday, where does this default get set or where can I change it. And it thinks day of the week is 4.
Thanks
The resolution of this property depends on the system timer. If you adjust the server's system time, it should adjust the programs.
It might have to do with the default start of the week. You might try something like:
Response.Write(WeekdayName(Weekday(System.DateTime.Now, _
Microsoft.VisualBasic.FirstDayOfWeek.Sunday)))
