The point is, there is no reason that IS_DATE must use the same formatting strings as Flatpickr. For example, just do the following: Field('mydate', 'date', requires=IS_DATE(format=T('%Y-%m-%d')) and in web2py_ajax.html (and similarly in web2py.js): var w2p_ajax_date_format = "{{=T('Y-m-d')}}"; w2p_ajax_date_format gets passed to Flatpickr. In that case, Flatpickr will generate dates that are in the format expected by IS_DATE(). But there is no reason that w2p_ajax_date_format must itself be a Python date formatting string -- it can simply using the Flatpickr formatting.
