Description
If I'm creating a form to update an existing object, I pass in the date from the object. This is a datetime.date but the SelectDateWidget in newforms.extras.widgets expects it to be a string, or else it does not set the values on the select boxes correctly.
I solved the problem by forcing the incoming value to be a string.
Add
value = str(value)
at line 33 of django/newforms/extras/widgets.py (using revision 6468)
