Hi Dustin, I think it would be better if you read the date in at least two comboboxes (one for the month and one for the day) and one text input for the year. Then you have to concatenate the three values and create a DateTime object. So that you can make sure that the user won't make a mistake. If you want to validate the leap years and the end of the months, there are plenty of Javascript that do that, or you could check it after the form is sumited via python.

Unreadable? Not available... But you could use POST request method with use of hidden form field. But I have tool for download these pages too. So you will block only lamers, some search engines does hidden fields form submitting too. Regards JL.

Sorry, I was blind. For logout: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set ('form_action', '/restricted/folder/acl_users/user_logout')"> <a href="&dtml-form_action;">LOGOUT</a> But for basic auth is no logout, login is sent with each page request, so you dont need logout.

queryCatalog sorting
by Shawn Day 15 Sep '03

Hi all, If I use queryCatalog() to get a list of 'Forum Posting' objects, how do I sort that list based on the modified date of the objects? At the moment the list doesn't seem to be sorted at all. Thanks.
