Hi all!

Sorry for this more python less zope question.

Lets say I have this two strings:

"13 Feb 2000 20:37:06 GMT"

and

"Fri, 21 Jan 2000 11:29:10 +0000"

I want to compare them has dates and not strings with the built-in cmp() func. What type of cast, conversion can I do. Or what module can I use for this. Is really anything already done, I do not want to go scratchy :-)

from DateTime import DateTime Now you can instantiate DateTime objects like so: DateTime(string) and compare them easily: if date1 < date2: print 'foo' -Michel
