I just tested in 1.3.5 and it worked fine:
echo $this->Form->dateTime('Site.created', 'YMD');
Note what the docs say:
http://book.cakephp.org/view/1418/dateTime
dateTime($fieldName, $dateFormat = 'DMY', $timeFormat = '12',
$selected = null, $attributes = array())
"You also can pre-select the current datetime by setting $selected =
null and $attributes = array("empty" => false)"
You can see, above, that I did pass null for the $selected param.
However, I did not pass false for 'empty'. Perhaps your problem lies
there.
No, wait. If I do:
echo $this->Form->dateTime('Site.created', 'YMD', '24', null, array());
... I still get the value from the DB. Change that to:
echo $this->Form->dateTime('Site.created', 'YMD', '24', null,
array('empty' => false));
... of course, I still get the correct value, because it's set. Are
you certain that you're using the correct field, and that it
definitely has a value? DO a debug($this->data) in your form view to
be sure.
