EDIT: Is see in the console a reference to SystemDate, but the JavaScript is attempting to set CurrentDate. Can you confirm you Storyline variable is named CurrentDate and referenced as %CurrentDate% in the tex box

Do you mind sharing you .story file. You can just attach to the post. One thing I would check is just make sure your variable CurrentDate is spelt correctly and does not contain whitespace before or after it wherever it is referenced.

Happy to check your file if no luck still.
