<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=624140101-12112005><FONT face=Arial

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=624140101-12112005><FONT face=Arial

<P><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>***Developer help/guidence
request***</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>The day/month/year
code needs to be rewritten in javascript</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>to allow the fields to dynamically update. Changing from
a</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>month that has 31 day to one
with 30 should update the day</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>field if it is set to 31. Similar logic is needed for
dealing</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>with February in
leap/non-leap years.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>This is well outside my experience and if
anyone would care</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>to contribute
the code, I'd appreciate it. Or if someone</FONT> <BR><FONT
face="Courier New" size=2>can point out a way to do it in PHP, even
better.</FONT> </P><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
