Can you provide a screenshot of the output you are getting on the approval side that you are trying to avoid? It will help us all understand exactly what your problem is.

I would double check to see if you have the javascript code on the approval form, it potentially might be causing complications.

Hi Ege and Kenneth,

Here is how the Start Date looks as a user fills it out and submits it:

Here is what it looks like if you view the submission in Forms:

We would like only the date selected to be shown on the submission.  I have found that if the form is submitted using Google Chrome, it works fine.  However, some of their forms will be public facing so they won't be able to control which browser is used.

Thanks, Jen

Part of the issue is that your JavaScript is running each time the form is opened. Another issue is that these options will be added whether the form is read-only or not (it looks like in your last screenshot the form is read-only for that approval task).

You can get around that a couple of ways. If you are going to populate the drop-down when the form is first filled out, you can do it like this:

$(document).ready(function () {
  $(".thisfieldreadonly input").prop("readonly", true);
  
  if($('input[name="routingResumeId"]').val() =="") {
    getMondays();
  }
});
function getMondays(){
  var badMondays = [ '7/21/2014', '9/1/2014', '12/29/2014' ];
  var mondays = new Array();
  var maxWeeks = 12;
  var d = new Date();
  while(d.getDay() != 1){
    d.setDate(d.getDate() + 1);
  }
 
  while(maxWeeks >= 0){
    var m = (d.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + d.getDate() + '/' +  d.getFullYear();
    
    if(badMondays.indexOf(m) == -1){
      mondays.push(m);
      maxWeeks--;
    }
    d.setDate(d.getDate() + 7);
  }
 
 
  //FIND ELEMENT & SET VALUES
  //var dd = document.getElementById("XXXX");
  for(i=0;i<mondays.length;i++){
    $("#Field224").append(new Option(mondays[i], mondays[i]));
  }
}

I just wrapped your getMondays() function call in a statement to see if the form is at the first routing step (initial submission) or not.
