Cannot blank out a date field and leave it blank

  1. I have a form that has a date field with a date picker. If I select an initial date "01/01/2013" it will save the date fine. However, I need to clear that date and make it blank. When the form comes back, the previous saved date is still there. I've tried a few hooks to set as blank, but it appears somewhere there is a merge of old data or the field isn't being updated with the new blank entry?

    How can I allow a user to clear the date out of the date field and update/save the form so the value of blank "" remains? Where should this be done?

    Thanks,

    Travis

  2. Can you share a link to the page on your site where the form is embedded so we can see what you mean? What do you mean "when the form comes back"? Do you mean, if you load the page again, the date you previously selected is pre-selected for you?
