Hi Sebastian,
You have to format the date for your view. If this is really woth the effort. I
had a similar problem in a non cake Project.
I played around with
$dateold = date("d.m.Y",strtotime($datefoo));
And
$datefoo= date("Y-m-d", strtotime("-$n day"));
Hope that helps. Be careful what format to validate!

Betreff: cake 1.2 forms: date fields left empty => null in database?
Hi,
i got the following problem using cakePHP 1.2 RC3:
My Model 'Employee' has a attribute called 'birthday' (datatype:
DATE). In the add-view, I have the following code:
<?= $form->input('birthday',array('type'=>'text'));?>
If i left this field blank when adding an employee, this employee has the
birthday '0000-00-00' saved in the database. I would rather like the birthday
having the null-value, because 0000-00-00 is no valid birthday.
Additionally, if I add a valid birthday, it is saved correctly. When editing
the employee, I would like to get the birthday viewed in the format dd.mm.yyyy.
How can I tell cake to view the birthday like this?
I hope you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Sebastian
