Not sure why it would be different once and a while. Might be the script on the prefill since its format is mm/dd/yy.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

I also have noticed when the form loads, for a split second the date is MM/DD/YY and then it quickly changes over to DD/MM/YY

I will check the script,

I changed the script as follows:
Obviously have done something incorrectly.

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script>var jQ = $.noConflict(true);
jQ( document ).ready(function() {
var currdate = new Date();
var currdate= currdate.getDate() + '/' (currdate.getMonth()+ 1) + '/' + + currdate.getFullYear();
jQ('input[name="Date"]').val(currdate);
});</script>

Sorry, correct script below.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script>var jQ = $.noConflict(true);
jQ( document ).ready(function() {
var currdate = new Date();
var currdate= currdate.getDate() + '/' + (currdate.getMonth()+ 1) + '/' + currdate.getFullYear();
jQ('input[name="Date"]').val(currdate);
});</script>

That looks correct. Try this. Which format do you have chosen in the Form Builder?
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
var jQ = $.noConflict(true);
jQ( document ).ready(function() {
var currdate = new Date();
var currdate=currdate.getDate() + '/' +(currdate.getMonth()+ 1) + '/' + currdate.getFullYear();
jQ('input[name="Date"]').val(currdate);
});
</script>

Looks like the form builders own scripts are altering the format after loading. I'll try a few things when I get a chance.

Mine seems to work if I leave the script alone with the wrong format and choose the correct format in the Form Builder.

I see it switch the format when it loads but if I put the correct format in the script the input clears after load.
Not sure how to fix that at the moment.

Yep, that's exactly what i get also.
I do not see that as a big problem on the form.
I just don't understand why it sometime changes the date in the csv file to the incorrect format.
Maybe its a bug in WFB ??

I found a way to make it work. The time zone script is in there also. If you don't need it on this form delete it.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>var jQ = $.noConflict(true);
jQ( document ).ready(function() {
var currdate = new Date();
var currdate=currdate.getDate() + '/' +(currdate.getMonth()+ 1) + '/' + currdate.getFullYear();
jQ('input[name="timezone"]').val(Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone);
setTimeout(
function()
{
jQ('input[name="Date"]').val(currdate);
}, 500);
});</script>

On Initial testing it seems to work.
I will test it further over the next few days and see if there are any Date Format mismatches in the csv file.
Thanks again Eric.
