Date Picker problems (no icon)

[merl429]

Hi, i'm having some date picker problems on the following version
SmartClient_SC_SNAPSHOT-2010-08-28_LGPL

here is the JS:
isc.DynamicForm.create({
ID: "newOrderForm",
width: "100%",
fields: [
{
name: "entryDate",
title: "Entry Date",
type: "date",
useTextField: "true"
}
]
}

1. the date picker icon/image is not displaying. viewing the image url it refers to this:
http://localhost/isomorphic/skins/TreeFrog/images/controls/date_control.png
shouldn't it be gif instead of png?

2. when i choose a date, it displays what i chose:
08/29/2010
but sends out a different thing:
2010-08-28T16:00:00
how do i have it send what it displays, or how do i convert what it sends (server side) to what was originally picked?

Which skin are you using? I'm having the same problem:

I think the skins in this jar are deprecated, and you will see more missing images in the future. I'm trying to verify that but haven't got any response yet.

TreeFrog as indicated above. But it does appear in other skins as well.

quick fix:
a. make a png version of the image
b. or edit load_skin.js and change all occurrences of date_control.png
to date_control.gif

for b, i don't know the implications for the disabled, down, over versions of the image.

I had the same problem in the latest snapshot of SC8 GPL.

I just created another copy of the same file with a png extension, and it worked fine.

Not a huge problem, but I hope they fix it in the next snapshot.

The missing media was added in mid-September. It is in the latest snapshots. In fact, both the .gif and .png images are there.
