[jira] Created: (TRINIDAD-748) Client-side DateTimeRangeValidator does not handle differences in timezone

Client-side DateTimeRangeValidator does not handle differences in timezone
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TRINIDAD-748
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRINIDAD-748
             Project: MyFaces Trinidad
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Components
    Affects Versions: 1.2.2-core
            Reporter: Yee-Wah Lee
            Priority: Minor


Scenario: I'm using a DateTimeRangeValidator on an inputDate, with minimum bound to a Date, say,  since today at midnight (Oct 1 2007 12:00:00 AM). The server is running in local time (Pacific/Los_Angeles).   The client is running in America/New_York timezone.

If client-side validation is disabled, the user can enter a string like "Oct 1 2007 12:00:01 AM" and that will submit successfully since the string is interpreted into the server's timezone and it is indeed greater than today's midnight.

If client-side validation is enabled, the same string will fail. The error message is "Enter a date greater than or equal to Oct 1 2007 3:00:00 AM". This is because the client-side validator is interpreting the value in the local timezone, so "Oct 1 2007 12:00:01 AM EST". That is earlier than "Oct 1 2007 12:00:00 AM PDT", so it fails validation.

The net result is, the values accepted are dependent on client-side validation being enabled, and whether the timezone adds/subtracts from the value so that it still falls within range.

[jira] Commented: (TRINIDAD-748) Client-side DateTimeRangeValidator does not handle differences in timezone

Yee-Wah Lee commented on TRINIDAD-748:
--------------------------------------

Proposal : Send down min, max as Strings instead of millisecond Dates. Then, use the client-side converter to create the Date objects from the Strings. That way, the min/max/value will all be interpreted with the same client-converter pattern and timezone offset.
