Custom input format options aren't showing in the CCK options.
I see 'Input format' but after that there's 'Years back and forward'.

There is an item in HTML source with the right id, 'edit-input-format-custom', but it's only this:

<input type="hidden" name="input_format_custom" id="edit-input-format-custom" value=""  />

Weird, that shouldn't be hidden. I'll investigate.

OK, found it. I ended up hiding the custom format for the date popup widget because there are only a limited set of formats that will work in that popup, so almost anything you typed in there would not work. I forgot that I did that.

You should be able to set a custom input format for any other widget type.

Do you see a missing option for something that ought to be a valid format for the date popup module? If so, I can add it to the list.

I would like to be able to allow entering month values without a leading zero as well as year values as just the last 2 digits. Could this be achieved by allowing the ability to specify a custom input format for the jquery popup calendar widget? Thanks!

The jQuery popup calendar used in the D5 version will only work with the leading zero. There is a more flexible version in D6 that doesn't have this requirement, but I have to use the older one in D5 because the newer one won't work with the version of Jquery that ships with D5.
