Thanks this has helped me also. I too am using the pop-up calendar for a Date of Birth field and moving the calendar by year would be beneficial for sure!

Many thanks,

Hello,

This is a known bug generated by Internet Explorer 6 only. The main issue is the calendar's javascript. We've fixed this in the latest revision, but some isolated cases still remain (since IE6 has ended its development cycle, every case is solved differently).
If you want to understand more why this error is produced, you can check out this blog post:

OK, I eat my words. I was thinking of a third party calendar module. Not the actual calendar within the form. I turned it off and the form works perfectly. I turned on Captcha and it seems to work fine with that on.

So, not having a calendar isn't a deal breaker. Since I love this form tool. Purchasing license in the morning.

One comment though. If it can be fixed to work with calendar some day that would be cool!

Perfect advice! Since I am not fluent in Javascript I appreciate this support. Works perfect now.
Maybe this could be an option for a date field type.
Then the calendar has no option to jump year by year. If one person has to enter his birthdate, the calender option is not suitable. It should be possible to jump in one year intervalls, not just month intervalls.

Thank you for such a great component.
With regards
Rolf

Hello,

Disable the autogenerate layout feature from the Form Layout tab. After that, paste this code at the end of the layout:...

Hello,

Thank you for your suggestion, it has been forwarded to the project manager and will be taken into consideration. However, the new RSTickets! revision is already scheduled for next week.

YES! that would be perfect!

Put the following code in the Script tab, on form process:

if(isset($_POST)){
$date = explode('.',$_POST);
$_POST = $date[2] . '-' . $date[1] . '-' . $date[0];
}

where Contactdate is the RSFormsPro calendar field.
This field are set to display dd.mm.yyyy and in the backend it will now be saved as YYYY-mm-dd

It works, and correcte date are saved to MySql

Don't touch to the Submissions Value with mapping. If you change it, you will not have the good information for display data in front end.

Just insert a field into Submission_values
If you add a field to have date with popup calendar, it will be write in text and not in date. So there is no differences for mysql because the format is not register as date, but as texte.<br><br>Post edited by: dragonjc, at: 2008/09/18 07:01

Let me see if I can iterate this properly:

1. Table created in MySQL with a field name of Date_submitted with the data-type of DATE. MySQL's DATE datatype format is YYYY-MM-DD.
2. Created a RSForm Pro form with Pop-up calendar field to display as dd-mm-yy (or mm-dd-yy)
3. Created a data mapping in RSForm Pro to the MySQL table.

The problem is the RSForm mapping does not write to MySQL's format of YYYY-MM-DD, so nothing is written to the table.

It is dates which are selected from the calendar.
Display format is set to dd.mm.yy and when saving this to the database it gives a crazy date.

Therefor i need to convert the dd.mm.yy date to a format that mysql recognizes, like yyyy-mm-dd.

I have read the knowledge manual, but it does not gives me directions enough to manage this.
Honestly i need someone to give me an example how to do this. That's how we learn when things are new.

I have never used RSForms before, and i find it difficult...

you don't say wich dat it is. Is it calendar or submission date ?
If it is calendar, you can on script process (see knowledgebase how to do) custom the registering. Or Change it in manage forms.
If it is the submissions table and not submission values, you can't change it.

I'm full agree with this ask.

I have the same needs, calendar and time !

Besides, I think, that for RSJoomla Team it can be just simple \&quot;copy\&quot; such custom field from RS Form to RS Tikets.

Like this ?
