Massimo, Happy Easter to you too.
Your reply solved my problem, however, I encountered another problem. The function of this use case reads like: def byplace(): form=form_factory(SQLField('plaats',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(),\ widget=lambda self, value:INPUT (_id='eventbyplace',_name='plaats',_class='ac_input',_type='text',requires=self.requires)), SQLField('datum',type='date',requires=[IS_DATE('%d-%m- %Y'),IS_NOT_EMPTY()]),\ SQLField('dagen',requires=IS_IN_SET([7,14,28,56],labels=['1 week','2 weken','4 weken','8 weken']))) events=[] if form.accepts(request.vars,session): response.flash='Geen match plaats datum' fromdate=request.vars.datum todate=IS_DATE()(fromdate)[0]+datetime.timedelta(days=int (request.vars.dagen)) events=db((db.event.plaats==request.vars.plaats)& (db.event.datum>=fromdate)&\ (db.event.datum<=todate)&(db.event.doelgroep=='Consumer')& (db.event.scope=='Extern'))\ .select (db.event.id,db.event.event,db.event.datum,db.event.locatie,\ db.event.eventtype,orderby=db.event.datum) elif form.errors: response.flash='form has errors' else: response.flash='please fill the form' return dict(form=form,events=events) When I expose it, and click the submit button, the form doesn't pass validation: must be YYYY-MM-DD the validator reports. I thought the following line of code would solve this problem: SQLField('datum',type='date',requires=[IS_DATE('%d-%m-%Y'),IS_NOT_EMPTY ()]) but it doesn't. Furthermore I expect a problem with the following lines of code: fromdate=request.vars.datum todate=IS_DATE()(fromdate)[0]+datetime.timedelta(days=int (request.vars.dagen)) Here todate should be calculated as: fromdate + days = todate It worked when I used the YYYY-MM-DD format, however, now that I changed the format to DD-MM-YYYY I expect it to break.
