This is not a backend issue at all - the problem is you're assigning a string to the DateField, which is not what it needs.
DateField/TimeField/DateTimeField need the python objects for them, not strings. They convert it to a string internally before save, so that the database gets the right value, but by keeping it the python objects outside of that, you don't have to do a lot of string processing if you need to change a date :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
