Hi all,

Actually I used the following code in my form definition:

myform = form.Form(
...
    form.Textbox('et', form.notnull, vet,
                 description="Ending Time",
                 maxlength="16",
                 value = timestring(2),
                 ),
...
)   

Where function timestring(2) returns the ending time stamp of the records 
of a given log file. I tried both methods Justin Davis mentioned but they 
didn't work for some reason.  Thank you for your help!

Best Regards,
-Yongzhi
