Hi,

I'm using the datepicker in combination with an SQLFORM. Since the date is 
not used in any case I'm enhancing the SQLFORM named form as follows but 
exactly the way you want to do:
valid_thru = TR(TD(LABEL(T('Valid thru')), TD(INPUT(_name='valid_thru', 
_type='date', _value=datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d')))))
form[0].insert(-1, valid_thru)

And it works, with a preset value of today.


Hope it helps!

Best regards
Clemens
