The time weblet provides a text input box control with added features to support the display, entry and validation of times. It broadly corresponds to the <input type="text"> HTML element.
An example of the weblet is shown below (for clarity it is shown with its label):
The time weblet is best used with fields of type time. If you use this type, the data will automatically be passed in the format expected by the weblet. You can use the time weblet with fields of other numeric types such as packed or signed, but it is your responsibility to ensure the numeric value is formatted in the correct ISO format expected by the time weblet. For example, you could use a signed (6, 0) field containing a time in HHMMSS format with an edit word ('0 : : ') to format it as an ISO time format.
