I have a calendar on my form, but I don't want people to select the current date. Basically its for a restaurant and they don't want reservations for the current day your on. So how would I be able to do that?

Hello Anna

Many people have asked in this forum for advice on modifying the behaviour of the calendar, but it seems that the RS-folks have chosen a calendar that is very hard to customise or transfer parameters too. The only advice I have found is this one on changing the first day of the week: http://www.rsjoomla.com/customer-support/documentations/27-frequently-asked-questions/151-how-do-i-modify-the-calendar-so-it-starts-with-monday-.html

It is possible, however, to add a new validation rule in PHP so that current date is not accepted, see http://www.rsjoomla.com/customer-support/documentations/32-customizing-rsform-pro/75-custom-validation-rules.html. It does take a bit of programming skills though. The customer will not be notified, however, until he tries to submit the form. I believe it is possible to write some Javascript code that alerts the customer as soon as he/she clicks a date (a number of examples of Java-script calculations are given in the manual). But that also takes programming skills.

Hello,

Indeed this cannot be done without some custom scripting.Please note that this can also be done with some javascripting.
