In Validator section of Chapter 7, the  example for IS_DATE_IN_RANGE
incorrectly uses IS_DATETIME where IS_DATE_IN_RANGE is expected:

requires = IS_DATE(format=T('%Y-%m-%d'),
                        minimum=datetime.date(2008,1,1),
                        maximum=datetime.date(2009,12,31),
                        error_message=T('must be YYYY-MM-DD!'))

should be:

requires = IS_DATE_IN_RANGE(format=T('%Y-%m-%d'),
                        minimum=datetime.date(2008,1,1),
                        maximum=datetime.date(2009,12,31),
                        error_message=T('must be YYYY-MM-DD!'))

The same error occured in the IS_DATETIME_IN_RANGE validator example:

requires = IS_DATE(format=T('%Y-%m-%d'),
                        minimum=datetime.date(2008,1,1),
                        maximum=datetime.date(2009,12,31),
                        error_message=T('must be YYYY-MM-DD!'))

should read as:

requires = IS_DATETIME_IN_RANGE(format=T('%Y-%m-%d'),
                                minimum=datetime.date(2008,1,1),
                                maximum=datetime.date(2009,12,31),
                                error_message=T('must be YYYY-MM-DD!'))
