did you look to see what the data format was? many of these calendars fill in american dates (mm-dd-yyyy) and mysql prefers (yyyy-mm-dd)....check to see what the format is before you assign it to the session id...

Subject: [PHP-DB] Converting Date for mysql
Date: Thu, 14 Oct 2004 12:14:57 -0700 (PDT)

I have one of those widget calendars.
Mysql keeps throwing back the date regardless of the
way I format it.
I'm passing session variables over to the database and
have tried quotes ' around the date as well.

Now I went ahead and changed this line:

$_SESSION['f3k'] = $_POST['DateAvailable'];

to

$_SESSION['f3k'] = date('Y-m-d',
mktime(0,0,0,substr(3,5,$_POST['newdate']),
                substr(0,2,$_POST['newdate']),
substr(6,10,$_POST['newdate'])));

I now tried to pass 'newdate' into the database and
still rejected.

Any ideas ?

Stuart
