Hi
Just wondering if a year can be added to the date.  I'm new to this and when I setup February 22 (today is April 23) it sends right away as if it's already occurred. I mean it to be next february 2016.  I'm trying @February 22 2016 and it doesn't seem to be working.  Am I missing something?

Hello Frank,

You might want to ensure that you're formatting the date correctly (here) which yes can include a year. And make sure everything else is working by following the tutorial (here). 

Thanks!

Problem with the link is it doesn't give example with a future year.  I was looking for formats like month\day\year or day\month\year (which one does script use?).  Since then I've read through the other posts and found a reference to that exact format question.  I did also find if I did format of (written month eg. February ^ day^ year) is working for me now.  Appreciate the feedback and may I suggest that maybe update the faqs\help to include mm\dd\yyyy for dummies like myself.
P.S. I love the script and thank you for creating it!

Hi,

I usually use yyyy/mm/dd format (usually with hours (24h format)). It worked for the "next week" option. As I needn't have to send e-mail the following year I cannot be sure it works, but I always add the year for my future e-mails and this format works fine. DateJS accepts this format too.
