I had the same problem before: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=zope&m=107784430723371&w=2 I was suggested to use Zope's DateTime, however I don't want to use Zope specific stuff where there's a python alternative. I created a small wrapper around the datetime object: class dtwrap(datetime): __allow_access_to_unprotected_subobjects__ = 1 Wherever I'd pass a datetime 'D' to a zpt, I pass getdwrapper(D) instead, where getdwrapper is: def getdwrapper(d): return dtwrap(d.year, d.month, d.day, d.hour, d.minute, d.second, d.microsecond) Anyway, it would be nice if zpt could handle the native python datetime.

In fact, I mean python2.3's datetime.datetime. However, with your hint, I've found I can do this.
<dtml-let d="getInvoiceDate('INV10001')"> <dtml-var "_.DateTime(str(d)).strftime('%d/%m/%Y')"> </dtml-let>
or in ZPT
<span tal:omit-tag="" tal:define="d python:here.getInvoiceDate('INV10001')"> <span tal:replace="python:DateTime(str(d)).strftime('%d/%m/%y)"/> </span>
Ther are pretty verbose. But it works anyway.
Thank you very much for your tip.

I'm now trying to publish a set of database-related logics through zope. Some of them return a python2.3's datetime object which its member access are disallowed from zope. (DTML, ZPT) I want to access some of datetime's member-methods, like strftime & isocalendar. How can I make it accessible from zope ? Or how can I make Zope automagically convert it to Zope's DateTime. I really don't want to change my logics to use Zope's DateTime.
DateTime and strftime are accessible from dtml:
<dtml-let e="_.DateTime()"> strftime(%Y/%m/%d) --> <dtml-var expr="e.strftime('%Y/%m/%d')"> </dtml-let>
