Hi,
I have a problem with this date picker I am using for my project.
The date-picker generates this option at run time :

<select class="birth-month" name="birth[month]" id="birth[month]"
<option value="1">Jan</option>
<option value="2">Feb</option>
<option value="3">Mar</option>
<option value="4">Apr</option>
<option value="5">May</option>
<option value="6">Jun</option>
<option value="7">Jul</option>
<option value="8">Aug</option>
<option value="9">Sep</option>
<option value="10">Oct</option>
<option value="11">Nov</option>
<option value="12">Dec</option>
</select>

I don't know how to Post or get the value for birth[month]

I'm confused, please help me.

Solution 1

You need a form tag on your web page for that and the datepicker will have to be on that form, then you can decide to use method POST or method GET.

<form method="POST" ... >

// other stuff

</form>

I'm very sure this doesn't answer your question, but you need to learn how to ask more specific questions ;) Feel free to edit your question to reveal what it is exactly you're trying to accomplish .

Cheers

Would you consider changing the name of the field from birth[name] to birthName and retry your code?
