Hi, Your code is syntactically correct, but the ZopeTime() function has sub-second precision. The result of subtracting one date object from another is a floating-point number of days. Take the integer portion thus: <dtml-if "_.int(ZopeTime() - created) == 14"> <p>Time's up! </dtml-if> and you've got the number of full days that have elapsed. There's a wealth of information on DateTime objects in lib/python/DateTime/DateTime.html hth, -- Marcus

Zopistas,

I have a date-time property called "created" in a dtml document. What I need to do is something like this:

<dtml-if "(ZopeTime() - created) == 14days"> <p>Time's up! </dtml-if>

How do I do this?

Thanks,
