=head1 NAME

Form::Processor::Field::DateTimeManip - Free-form date/time input

=head1 VERSION

version 1.162360

=head1 SYNOPSIS

See L<Form::Processor>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This field uses the scary and bloated L<Date::Manip> module to allow
free-form date input (e.g. "Last Tuesday in December").

IIRC, timezone handling in Date::Manip is broken.

=head2 Widget

Fields can be given a widget type that is used as a hint for
the code that renders the field.

This field's widget type is: "text".

=head2 Subclass

Fields may inherit from other fields.  This field
inherits from: "Field".
