When 'now' is used as a value in a filter based on the date.module's date or datestamp field the value is not translated into the current date/time. The filter will work when a regular value is entered into the value field. e.g. 2006-09-10 with a date field.

According to the documentation, this translation is done for Arguments and node fields like Created Time.

This may be a documentation problem or a date.module problem.

Project: Views (for Drupal 7) » Date
Version: 4.7.x-1.x-dev » 7.x-1.x-dev

This would be a date.module issue I believe.

This is a todo. The structure of CCK has been changing, especially the way that views integration is handled, so I had to wait until it stablized before fixing things like this. And now I have to wait until I have time :-) but hopefully I will get to it soon. Patches are always welcome.

Since 'now' doesn't work, is there a value that can be plugged in to have the same functionality in the meantime?

This doesn't work in the 4.7 version, where CCK isn't changing. Plans to fix it soon? Just subscribing for now :-)
