I would like to use the represent function on a datetime object, like so: from datetime import *
db.define_table("adate", Field("date","datetime", represent = lambda x: x.strftime("%a %m-%d-%y") if x else 'No time' #convert datetime object to string ) ) This works when I create a form, however when i use appadmin it gives the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "gluon/restricted.py", line 173, in restricted File "/Applications/web2py.app/Contents/Resources/applications/ FWv7_7/views/appadmin.html", line 196, in <module> File "gluon/sqlhtml.py", line 1103, in __init__ File "gluon/sql.py", line 2676, in formatter File "gluon/validators.py", line 2006, in formatter AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'strftime' Avik -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
