[Zope] on dates

[Cliff Ford]

This bit of python:

return DateTime(d).strftime('%H:%M, %a %d %b, %Y')

giving this error:

means that your item.data is neither an integer nor a string. You could 
try to find out what it contains. For example, if you put in this 
temporary line you should get the content:

return d
return DateTime(d).strftime('%H:%M, %a %d %b, %Y')
