Comment:
You are declaring the `today` var as a `datetime` and are trying to
compare it with a `date` value (`born`, obtained from the Django
`DateField`).
{{{
#!python
>>> import datetime
>>> born = datetime.date(1971, 11, 26)
>>> today = datetime.date.today()
>>> try:
... bday = born.replace(year=today.year)
... except ValueError:
... bday = born.replace(year=today.year, day=born.day-1)
...
>>> bday
datetime.date(2010, 11, 26)
>>> bday > today
True
>>> wrong_today = datetime.datetime.today()
>>> bday > wrong_today
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date
}}}
Please review your code because I doubt it is working on the command line
in its current form.
Closing ticket as invalid because it's a basic Python problem.
