date input through browser

[clemzzz]

my database when accessed through a browser will not accept

the UK style of date dd/mm/yyyy . my regional settings etc.. are ok

this is with ie5.5 pc / ie5 mac

using fm app it's ok

on the browser you have to use the usa entry mm/dd/yyyy but after accepting this it will insert the correct format into the database as dd/mm/yyyy , why will it not take this format as an entry?:

this is puzzling me

I had some problems with this earlier in the year. Initially I wrote some Javascript which swapped the order of the day and month prior to form submission. However, I discovered that the problem was only occurring in databases which been created in version 5.0 and were now being served in 5.5.

I recreated these databases in 5.5 and the problem disappeared.

Hope this helps.
