[Zope] How-To: Dropbox date entry for html forms

[Loren Stafford]

Your example in a How-To may well be useful. However, I think you have
maligned the DateTime method. It is quite flexible about the input formats
it accepts. Have you read the extensive documentation in
../lib/python/DateTime/DateTime.py?
