    $sql2 = "INSERT INTO Booking_Info (Date_Booked, Start_Date, End_Date, Number_Guests, Cot_Required, Cust_Username) VALUES ('".$today."', '".$startdate."', '".$enddate."', '$number', '$cot', '".$username."')";

    hi,

    is there anyway to format startdate and enddate before they enter the database?????

    im trying to enter 03/11/2006(march 11th) as the startdate but it goes into the database as 2003/11/20

    the date is coming from my javascript popup calendar

    cheers

    substr is your friend.

    substr($startdate,6,4) . "/" . substr($startdate,3,2) . "/" . substr($startdate,0,2);
