Hi,
Does HTML::FormFu offer a way of using a constraint that disallows
sending
invalid dates like February 30?
HTML::FormFu::Constraint::DateTime should work fine for this.

Hi,
I think that Date and DateTime fields should use by default the DateTime
constraint, or any other constraint that assures that the chosen date is
valid.
I have checked the DateTime constraint, (I want to use it with Date and
DateTime fields) but it requires too much code.
In the DateTime fields, I use something like:
strftime %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:00
but for using the DateTime constraint, I should define this format a second
time for each field, and use strptime instead of strftime.
I think the DateTime and Date fields should use by default the DateTime
constraint because those fields should always send correct date values.
I put the following in the myapp.pl Catalyst configuration file which sets
this constraint for all the DateTime elements, but it would be nice if it
wouldn't be necessary:
'Controller::HTML::FormFu' => {
constructor => {
default_args => {
elements => {
DateTime => {
constraints => [
{
type => 'DateTime',
parser => {strptime => '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:00'},
},
],
},
},
},
},
},
Thanks.
Octavian
