I've actually modified it to:
import datetime
response.flash = T("Hello World")
if request.post_vars.PostDate:
try:
db.QuarterMaster.PostDate.default = datetime.datetime.strptime(
request.post_vars.PostDate, "%Y-%m-%d")
except ValueError:
pass
else:
db.QuarterMaster.PostDate.default = request.now.date()
# str(request.now.year) + "-" + str("%02d" % (request.now.month)) + "-"
+ str("%02d" % (request.now.day))
form = SQLFORM(db.QuarterMaster)
if form.process().accepted:
response.flash = T("Thank you!")
elif form.errors:
response.flash = T("Please correct the errors in the form")
else:
response.flash = T("Please fill out the form")
return dict(form=form)
because I'm allowing the data entry staff (me) to catch up on older
(written) records.
I have yet to try the redirect technique, but I do intend to open that
envelope, as well.
