datepicker

I have datepicker in a form and the submission of the form works, the page redirects and the email comes in, but I am getting a syntax error on line 147:

$(function(){
$('#Start Date').datepicker({
dateFormat: 'yyyy/mm/dd',
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
onClose: closeDatePicker_Start Date <---Line 147
});
});

It doesn't have any errors on the second date picker which is the "End date" on the form.

Also, in the email that I received, I get this extra content:
Warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /var/www/vhtdocs/userwebxxx/html/webassist/email/templates/Blank_4.php on line 34

I appreciate the help.

For the date picker, please send a link so i can see the code in context.


The PHP Error means that in the php.ini file, there is no timezone set for the date.timezone

Edit the php.ini file and enter a vlid timezone for the date.timezone setting.

Alternatively, you can add the following at line 1 of the form page to set the time zone:

<?php 
date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');
?>



The list of valid timezones is here...

Looks like you created the datepicker instances with a space in the name:

Start Date

or
End Date

you cannot use spaces when naming the date picker instances, the date pickers will need to be recreated with no spaces in the name.

as for saving the form to a database, there is not a tutorial for this, you just need to use the Insert record behavior and bind the table columns to the form elements.

you would bind the form elements in the Insert record server behavior.

Jason,

I went into the Form Builder and edited the datepicker to have one word names...what I found out in my code on the page is that it doesn't delete the old one, nor does it even just update it. So now i have 3 instances of the code and I am at a loss.

Why doesn't it just edit the code?

I would recreate the form from the beginning rather than try to edit. Sometimes with invalid names for form elements, it cannot recognize the element it is supposed to edit, so creates a new one.

Oh, man...I spent over 2 hours creating this yesterday. Oh well...

Fortunately, I saved all the presets and it is fine. The only thing is in the CSS Form Builder, I formatted the dates as: yyyy/mm/dd and they are not showing up like that in the email.

Any thoughts?

See PM

Please be more specific, how are the dates displaying in the email, attach a copy of the page and a copy of the email template file and the email you receive.
