How can I use CompareValidator for times without dates?

Question

When I enter 9:00 into the Start control, and 16:00 into Finish; the code below fails validation.

Does anybody know a way I can use the ASP.NET val

Answer 1

This appearently cannot be done.

For the record; I used a custom validator.

EDIT: Here's my custom validator code in case anyone (i.e. alhambraeidos) needs it. Please note, this code replaces my sample control names (txtStart & txtFinish) with actual names from my app (txtReady & txtClose).

try
{
    // parse & compare dates
    string randomDt = "01/01/2000 ";
    args.IsValid = DateTime.Parse(randomDt + txtClose.Text) > DateTime.Parse(randomDt + txtReady.Text);
}
catch(Exception /*ex*/)
{
    // exception is assumed to be invalid times entered
    args.IsValid = false;
}

Answer 2

try to change the Type property to String, it should work.

Answer 3

Compare validator allowable types are: Stinrg, Integer, Double, Date (no time) Currency
