Calling report with date in auto search parameters

rbuser

I am having an issue calling a report on my server via the following example
url:

http://www.myweb.com/RBWebServer/RBWebServer.dll?content=pdf&volume=Report
Explorer Database&name=Backlog
Summary&framset=1&newsearch=T&asg0f0se=1/1/2008

The value of report.autosearchfields[0].searchexpression is 12/30/1899

What is the proper way to handle passing a date in the above manner?

Thanks All,
Branden Johnson

That did not work. Below is the url example i was trying

http://www.myweb.com/RBWebServer/RBWebServer.dll?content=pdf&volume=Report
Explorer Database&name=Backlog
Summary&framset=1&newsearch=T&asg0f0se=2008-04-01

http://www.myweb.com/RBWebServer/RBWebServer.dll?content=pdf&volume=Report
Explorer Database&name=Backlog
Summary&framset=1&newsearch=T&asg0f0se=2008-4-1

Try

2008-1-1-0-0-0

Looks like it wants

yyyy-mm-dd-hh-nn-ss

That worked but a date like 2008-4-1-0-0-0 yields a
report.autofields[0].SearchExpression of 5/1/2008?

It appears the webtier code was written to accomodate the Javascript Date
object, which uses a zero based month (0 to 11).

For RB 11, we can change it so that...

1. The web search form is responsible for adjusting the Javascript month by
one.

2. The webiter will accpet yyy-mm-dd (i.e. 2008-1-1)
