RE: [Summary-Talk] Compare Time Periods 2.5.4

["dac@xxxxxxxxxxx" <dac@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

And I was going to say, before an unfortunate sequence of key-strokes 
sent the e-mail half typed...

/compare?from-a=01%2F01%2F05&to-a=31%2F01%2F05&from-b=01%2F02%2F05&to-b=28%2
F02%2F05

That is the string that is re-loaded.

I get the same problem in IE 6

However... I have just noticed that the format is back-to-front... How 
do I set it to be DD/MM/YY ?

Sorry about that!!

Regards
Dave

I have tested with FireFox 1.0.1 on the Macintosh and didn't see any
problems. I don't know of any reason why the Windows version would be
different.

When Summary is unable to parse the dates that you entered it replaces 
them with MM/DD/YY (or DD/MM/YY). Perhaps you are entering the ending 
dates incorrectly? Try entering the exact same string for the end date 
as you currently have for the start date and see if that works? If it 
does, look for what was different in the format between the two entries.

Good Luck
Jason

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed as a
searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
