<g:ui_date in Dynamic Content Block

Hello Community....

Some of our delivery units have asked for interactive filters for their respective homepages so that they can dynamically filter the charts contained on the pages. Since we have not (and will probably not) purchased Performance Analytics, I am accomplishing this by building dynamic content blocks. 

 

The problem I am having at the moment, is that one of the groups would like some date driven filters. I was able to do this with a simple text input box, but they would like to utilize a date picker. I have attempted to use the following:

<g:ui_date_time id="${jvar_name}" value="${jvar_name}" />

This does give me a date/time picker which displays the calendar and allows a date to be chosen. The issue I'm having is that once you select a date, the field is populated with something similar to the following: $[g52.get5PMteFor36PMt()]

I'm assuming that this is some sort of encoded date but I'm unsure how to get it to display correctly. 

 

Any help is much appreciated.
