Hi,

I am making a simple VF page with some date fields.

There is also a javascript to gray out boxes depending on which radio button is selected.

However, how can I stop the date fields from being autopopulated with the current date and time? I want them to be blank by default.

Here is the code:

<!-- Define controller, create main page block and first section -->
<apex:page controller="dashboardRadio">
<apex:PageBlock title="Dashboard">
<apex:pageBlockSection title="Select Type of Update" columns="1">

<!-- Java script to gray out n/a boxes -->
<script type="text/javascript"> function getActive(selectedValue) 
     {
        if( selectedValue == 'noDate') 
           { 
          var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.startDate}');
              ele.disabled =true;
          var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.endDate}');
              ele.disabled =true;
           }
        else if(selectedValue == 'oneDate')   
           {
           var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.startDate}');
               ele.disabled =true;
           var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.endDate}');
               ele.disabled =false;
           }
        else if(selectedValue == 'twoDate')
           {
           var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.startDate}');
               ele.disabled =false;
           var ele=document.getElementById('{!$Component.form1.endDate}');
               ele.disabled =false;
           }
    }       
</script>

<style>
    .dateFormat{display:none;}
</style>



<apex:form id="form1">
<apex:selectRadio value="{!selectedValue}" layout="pageDirection" onchange="getActive(this.value);">
        <apex:selectOption itemValue="noDate" itemLabel="No date & time"/>
        <apex:selectOption itemValue="oneDate" itemLabel="Single date & time"/>
        <apex:selectOption itemValue="twoDate" itemLabel="Date & time span"/>
            </apex:selectRadio><p/>

        
      Start Date  <apex:inputField value="{!c.dashboard_start_date__c}" id="startDate" required="false"/><br></br>
    End Date  <apex:inputField value="{!c.dashboard_end_date__c}" id="endDate" required="false"/><br></br>
</apex:Form>
</apex:PageBlockSection>

</apex:PageBlock>        
</apex:page>
 

Thanks!
