Guys, great plugin,
been using it for several months now and its getting great results.
One thing, since installing Slidedeck our Date Picker has gone weird. We need a solution quickly before new talent or a casting wants to register.
Pages you can see our problem:

Hope you can get a solution soon. Many thanks.
Yep, there is an obvious script conflict with the jQuery datepicker script itself.. beyond just the icon.

The datepicker position, width, etc. are set dynamically by the script and that's being broken.
The datepicker script is part of the jQuery UI library and not something proprietary to Gravity Forms. Your best bet is to do a Google search for known conflicts with Slidedeck and the jQuery datepicker to see what you can find.
It could be that you're calling the jQuery library multiple times in your script.. hard to say since there's so much going on. I don't know if these are relevant or not, but might be a good place to start looking.

As far as the calendar icon itself, are you sure that you have that option set to show on the field?
Thanks for getting back to me.
Sure i think that loading jQuery library multiple times is the culprit, and Slidedeck were also giving this as a possibility. On this occasion due to time contraints and my lack of understanding with php, I have gone for the Date Field option.
However if you had time to look at our header.php and find the culprit it would be most appreciated.
Cheers.
The issue is most likely going to be multiple jQuery libraries being loaded. This is never recommended. If SlideDeck isn't using the built in WordPress jQuery library and using enqueue to do so, then they should really change how they are loading jQuery.
