I need to search for material based on date. So thusly I want to use the
date widget to search for material within a date range.

On the search page I have...

<TR>
		<TD><B>Beginning<BR>
		[widget type=date NAME=ui_begin_date]</TD>
		<TD><B>Ending</B><BR>
		[widget type=date NAME=ui_end_date]</TD>
</TR>


on the result page I have...

[calc]
	if ($Session->{arg}) {
		$Scratch ->{date_limit} = "AND created like '$Session->{arg}%'";
	}
	elsif ($CGI->{ui_begin_date}) {
		for (qw/ ui_begin_date ui_end_date/) {
			$CGI -> {$_} = $Tag->filter ( {
				op => 'date_change',
				body => $CGI -> {$_}
				} );
		}
		$Scratch->{date_limit} = <<EOF
AND created >= '$CGI->{ui_begin_date}'
AND created <= '$CGI->{ui_end_date}Z'
EOF
	}
	else {
		$Scratch -> {date_limit}= "";
	}
	return;
[/calc]

There are no ouput errors

running IC 4.8
