Customer delivery date on order

Question

I'd like to support a user-entry field of 'delivery date' on an order - that way the customer can specify a product to be delivered on someone's birthday, for example. Is this possible?

Answer

The easiest way to do this is to use the 'comments' field on the order. By changing a bit of HTML on the payonline.asp page, this can be changed to a normal 'input' field and move up the page.

By modifying the language strings, this could be labelled 'Delivery Date' on the payonline.asp and on the order emails.

With some basic ASP coding it would not be hard to do some validation checking to make sure it's filled in, a valid date etc.
