[ciapug] times again

[Carl Olsen]

My date drop down control could be written so that it automatically updates
the list of days according to which month and year were selected (I think
that's what AJAX does, but I haven't looked at AJAX yet), but that's too
much Javascript or page re-submitting for me.  I prefer to do the simple PHP
date check function after the date has been submitted.

Thats interesting. I'm thinking that if I do a listbox for hours,
minutes and am/pm, I shouldn't have to do any validation.
