What mean "doesn't work"? Nothings happens? Do you get a traceback?

this looks very strange. I guess you are new to python programming.
Some hints:
- don't catch all exceptions ("except:")
- keep only few (at best one line) between "try" and "except".
- birthday is of type datetime.date. You set it to a string.
- Have a look at newforms. form_for_model and form_for_instance
might help you. You should use forms.DateField for the birthday.
