In this case, the Conversion function is set to NwaConvertOptionalDateTime to convert the string time

representation from the form field (for example, “2008-01-01”) to UNIX time (for example, 1199145600).

The Validator for the

expire_time

field is

IsValidFutureTimestamp

, which checks an

integer

argument against the

current time.

The Value Formatter is applied after validation. This may be used in situations where the validator requires the

specific type of data supplied on the form, but the stored value should be of a different type. In the

expire_time

field

example, this is not required, and so the value formatter is not used. However, if the Conversion function had not

been used, and the Validator had been set to

IsValidFutureDateTime

(which checks a

string

date/time value), then

the Value Formatter would need to be set to NwaConvertOptionalDateTime to perform the data conversion before

the form processing.

A comparison of these two approaches is shown below to illustrate the difference:

When using a Conversion or Value Format function, you will almost always have to set up a Display Function for

the form field. This function is used to perform the conversion in the reverse direction – between the internal stored

value and the value displayed in the form field.
