    'Today is' link on date picker not working in the browser

    Hi InfoPath experts,

    Please could you help me with the following problem?

    I have created a browser form with a date picker.  The postback settings for the date picker control is 'always'.

    The date picker works fine in the browser apart from, if you click on the date beneath the 'Today is' link, nothing happens.  (I'm assuming that it's 'sposed to update the value in the date picker with today's date).

    When I hover over the date under today is, the status bar shows

    'BLOCKED SCRIPTMoveToDate('20\u002f08\u002f2008');

    and when I actually click, the page appears to refresh, but the date does not change.  No JavaScript error is reported.

    In InfoPath preview it works fine (though it displays a 'today' button in place of the 'Today is' text).

     Any help on this one gratefully received!

    Thanks for the reply - however I now think that my initial assumption on the behaviour of this link was probably wrong.

    A tester on my team has noticed this behaviour:

    * Manually enter a date that does not contain the current year or month
    * Then click on the date picker - by default the calendar will show the entered month/year
    * Now click on the 'today is' link - the calendar will update to show the current month/year

    I believe that this behaviour is what's intended by the link, and my assumption that it should update the date field with the current date was wrong.

    So the issue is resolved!

    Thanks,
