Users somehow selecting un-selectable dates

    We've been using the date selection field with certain dates disabled. It was working fine. Recently however, some users have been able to select disabled dates and submit the form somehow. I cannot reproduce this problem myself but I see that it has happened several times. Any thoughts on how users might be getting around this? I am pretty stumped.

    Are you using the specific blocked dates? It works with my installation, feel free to try my test form so I too can't replicate it.

    I have three date fields as examples, using (1) No Past Dates, (2) No Weekends and (3) Blocking specific dates. User tips show what can't be entered so you can test the validation.

    The form won't go through without typing in or selecting with date picker a valid date. Not sure how your users can get around this. Maybe javascript disabled (not sure if the validation is done server-side (PHP) or client-side (Javascript)
