Hello,

If you want to use this within a textbox, edit the textbox and add something like (including the //<code> tags) within its Default Value area:
//<code>
$currYear = date('Y');
$nextYear = (int) $currYear+1;
return $currYear.' - '.$nextYear;
//</code>

Otherwise, if you want it displayed as plain text, you can use a similar script within "Scripts Called on Form Display" area (while editing a form > Properties > PHP Scripts).
This is not official customer support. To receive your support, submit a support ticket here.

You have been using RSForm!Pro for quite some time, and have numerous examples about how to implement PHP scripting in your support tickets, but if that isn't enough, i will explain:

- each field can use PHP code to populate its value section, via the Default Value option (Items section for dropdowns, radios, checkboxes). This is explained for each field type here:

https://www.rsjoomla.com/support/documentation/rsform-pro/form-fields.html

- RSForm!Pro also incorporates various PHP scripting section that are triggered at various points within the execution flow. Explanations here:
