woody date extension

[Frank Taffelt <fr...@interface-business.de>]

Hi,

i have a form which contains 2 fields with date entries (ex.:'17.06.2003
13:55'). What are the steps to get woody to:

* validate the values against a given dateformat ex. "dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm"
* to say in a assertion rule that date2 must be greater than date1
(date1,date2 are the formfields)

do i have to create a new Woody Datatype or a new ValidationRule for
Datatype String ?

thanks in advance
Frank

The best way would be to create a new datatype, at least if you're
interested in getting/setting the value of that widget as a Date object.
Otherwise a validationrule for strings (e.g. a regexp-based rule) might
be sufficient.
