Is it possible to have the DATE (timestamp) sent via $_POST?

Is it possible to have the DATE (timestamp) sent via $_POST?

The timestamp that is in the submission display is not being sent to the Thank You page via $_POST.  Is there a way to pass this data?

Thanks.

I also cannot find the submission date/time stamp in Send Post data of submission. So I think that parameter is just not available.

A workaround you can do is to add a DateTime field on your form and set its value to current date/time.

The send post data can use the DateTime field value then.

Ex:

I hope this help. Let us know if this will not work for you.

Specifically please...

Which/Where/What DateTime JotForm input/widget/etc are you telling me to use?

I used the Jotform's Date Picker and set all of the options to grab the current date.  I then set the field to hidden and set it to 24 hour time.  All of this works fine except for the final output data sent via $_POST.

The only thing now is the coordination of the exact data's syntax.

JotForm's SUBMISSION section display of this data:  2017-06-29 22:20

The $_POST output syntax:  2017,06,29,22,20

Obviously, I understand why the output is displaying like this (= each item is one piece of data).  Before I code the correct syntax on my end, is the ANYWAY to have the JF Submission section output exactly match the $POST output data?  Either by a setting, using a different input/widget and/or does Jotform allow jQuery, etc. to be coded into a form?

Thanks.

My colleague was referring to regular Date field that you can find in elements section:

Unfortunately, you can not use any scripting language in our forms.

But for correct syntax maybe you could use this page https://www.jotform.com/show-post-data/ that you can place in Thank you page. The output will be something like this:

So you can see the whole structure of the POST data.

Could that help you?

Please let us know.

Thank you!
