All, Got it working in the end - this is what I did:
_dob_year = int(form.clean_data['dob_year']) _dob_month = int(form.clean_data['dob_month']) _dob_day = int(form.clean_data['dob_day']) _dob = date( year = _dob_year, month = _dob_month, day = _dob_day ) There probably is a cleaner way of doing it, but it seems to work :) On Feb 16, 10:49 am, Darthmahon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Alex, > > Tried this and it gave me the following error: > > TypeError at /register/ > an integer is required > > Any ideas? > > On Feb 13, 11:03 pm, Alex Koshelev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > You create string object with bits from form.
