Hi -

I just tried to submit some observations via WebObs for CCD obs.

I tried entering the dates
    2008/02/29/...
and also 
    2008/03/00/...

and got error messages.  In the first case, the complaint was that February only has 28 days (!), the other wanted me to use a number in range 1..31 for March.

Don't know if this is the forum for airing this, so forgive me if it isn't.  I tried sending to 
    observations at aavso.org
but that obviously isn't the right place.

Don't worry about the problem, I was able to use J.D. format to get around the problem.
