All select menus in Date drop down field has same ID

Hi,
I decided to try adding Chosen to the drop down date field. But GF adds the same ID to each select menu when using it. The only select menu that gets the Chosen style properly is the first instance (taking values from the last instance).

So the day, month and year select menus all have the same ids. The normal functionality works, but the HTML isn't valid. And Chosen doesn't work either.

I managed to make it work using some hacky preg_replace;

//Day
$content = preg_replace("/(<div class='gfield_date_dropdown_day[^>]+\>)(<select name='input_\\d{1,2}\[\]' )(id='input_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2})/s", "\$1$2$3_1", $content);
//Month
$content = preg_replace("/(<div class='gfield_date_dropdown_month[^>]+\>)(<select name='input_\\d{1,2}\[\]' )(id='input_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2})/s", "\$1$2$3_2", $content);
//Year
$content = preg_replace("/(<div class='gfield_date_dropdown_year^>]+\>)(<select name='input_\\d{1,2}\[\]' )(id='input_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2}_\\d{1,2})/s", "\$1$2$3_3", $content);

Hi, I am wondering if you would be able to help me: I have a day/month/year component on a website I want to call fro fake. The problem is: The entire component consists of three separate dropdowns and has only one id numer. Is it possible to somehow call those 3 separate dropdowns or do I need to talk to the website developer about assigning unique ids to all of the dropdowns?

Hi Chris

This is our link: http://www.c-r-l.com/get-a-quote/

The calendar for Construction Start Date* and Estimated Construction End Date* both have 3 pieces of data, dd/mm/yyyy, the container is actually sent through as one, but we would need a way to make it into 3 individual pieces of data, ie separate dd and mm and yyyy.

Is this possible and if so please inform on how to do this

Thank you and kind regards
Nic
