I have a need to validate Geographic Coordinates.
I've therefore added 2 new validators based on the existing
IS_FLOAT_IN_RANGE.
Makes it just a little easier when coding & provides a nicer error
message to users.
Of any interest to others? (I'd love to see this added by default to
make my apps portable & save me re-hacking it in to my copy)
F
Procedure:
* add code below to gluon/validators.py
* add these functions to __all__ in the same file
* delete validators.pyc
* close web2py & start it up again
class IS_LAT(object):
"""

INPUT(_type='text',_name='name',requires=IS_LAT())

between -90 & 90!'):

try:
value = float(value)
