I have the following date element:
$form->addElement('date', 'orderdate', 'Order Date:',
array('format'=>'Y-m-d', 'minYear'=>2010,
'maxYear'=>2001));
I know that this creates an array, orderdate[Y,m,d], it defaults to
2010-1-1, how do I pass an array back to the date element to set the values
to something else (e.g. if I'm using the form to edit pre-existing data)
I tried the following:
// separate date in format 2004-01-01
$explodeDate = explode ( "-", $objData->orderdate );
// construct new array
$existDate = array("Y"=> $explodeDate[0], "m" => $explodeDate[1],
"d" =>
$explodeDay[2]);
// try and change the value of the date element
$form->addElement('date', 'orderdate', 'Order Date:',
array('format'=>'Y-m-d', 'minYear'=>2010,
'maxYear'=>2001, 'value' =>
$existDate));
But that didn't work.
Thanks, Mark
