I do it like this: $this->addElement('date','dataora_inizio', 'Data e ora di inizio', array('minYear' => 2003, 'language' => 'it', 'format' => 'd-m-Y H:i', 'optionIncrement' => array('i' => 5))); .... stuff .... $do_i = $page->exportValue('dataora_inizio'); and save it directly to the db, both "raw" as $do_i, and transformed back into a timestamp using a mktime on its parts: $ts_i = mktime($do_i['H'], $do_i['i'], 0, $do_i['m'], $do_i['d'], $do_i['Y']); the results include all the needed leading 0's. maybe somewhere between submit and check/save some operation /check is done that casts the date-string|parts to a number? that would explain the loss of the leading 0.
