Re: Datefield on the Flash Form is not displaying date properly

[Axel Schultze]

Hi Chris,
even so it is an older post - but I'm interested how you solved the flash date format issue.
bind="{GridUnit2.dataProvider[GridUnit2.selectedIndex]['#dateformat(registerdate,"mm/dd/yy")#']}"  
value="#dateformat(registerdate,"mm/dd/yy")#"
doesn't work for me either.

Thanks
Axel

The cfinput tag a an attribute "mask" and you should say
mask="dd/mm/yyyy" or whatever you want. See the documentation on the
cfinput tag for details on masking values.
