Hello, I'm running an application using python 2.7 with django 1.5 and when posting a page I get the error "TypeError" I guess it is something related to timestamps?
Below I paste part of the code I think is causing the problem and the stacktace I see

Any help is welcome, Thanks!

if end_timestamp and start_timestamp:
start_datetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(float(start_timestamp))
end_datetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(float(end_timestamp))

What is the type and value of start_timestamp and end_timestamp?

I think it's a float, I see in the code

if request.method == "POST":
end_timestamp = request.POST.get('end_timestamp', None)
start_timestamp = request.POST.get('start_timestamp', None)

and in the debug of django

<QueryDict: {u'start_timestamp': [u'1378918630.398'],
