Hello Alexx,

Many thanks

Hi Tony,

sorry fo the late reply I've got no email notification on your post.

Just checked Firefox Dev WebConsole ...
tellin' me "Empty string passed to getElementById()."
But that seem nothing special since it happens often in various Backend components / Modules and everthing else is working extremly well

Any other Ideas Suggestions?

I still dont't get what the last row "by year day" trying to tell me (neither in english or german;))
and more important why is the radiobox checked ?! If i have chosen something else above ?!

Thanxx

The problem is from the JSON script that checks for overlapping events - it looks as though a plugin on your site is interfering with this. If you send me login details via PM I can take a look at what it is an see if I can implement a workaround which will help it not arise on other sites too.

The 'by year day' input is for events that take place each year - 30 November is 32 days from the end of the year. We need to count back from the end of the year otherwise the repeats are wrong for leap years

I found where the problem was happening but NOT why - your server is doing some VERY strange things that make no sense at all with the JSON script.

I have however implemented a workaround that solves the issue on your site and will do no harm elsewhere so may help others too.
