Date & Time Field. 1

[llldnylll]

Hi,

I am creating an asp form that users can fill Name, Location, Time and Date.

Is there a way that we can have the D&T fields automatically filled in? (depending on when they opened that page)

Hiya

Just do something like

<input name="time" value="<%=Time()%>">
<input name="date" value="<%=Date()%>">

There are numerous other vbscript time/date functions which can return them in other formats - see here:

Thanks!

Is there a way that I can chage how it is picking up time?
I am getting this: Fri Nov 03 09:46:32 2006

How can I get it just to show date?

<input name="date" value="<%=Date()%>">

That will just put the date in.

Would there be a reason why I get

Fri Nov 10 10:38:33 2006 instead of 11/10/06 ?

I am using <input name="date" value="<%=Date()%>">

There must be something else in your code.
Try using this instead. Put this in your head

<%
dd=datepart("dd",date())
mm=datepart("m",date())
yy=datepart("yyyy",date())
myDate=dd&"/"&mm&"/"&yy
%>

and this in your form

<input name="date" value="<%=myDate%>">
