    How to compare dates

    I try to compare two dates and always get false.

     <xsl:variable name="now" select="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:datetime()" />

    <xsl:value-of select="string(data[@alias='contentDate'])" />
    return 2010-11-18T11:41:00

    <xsl:value-of select="string($now)" />
    return 2010-09-02T17:18:31

    <xsl:value-of select="string(data[@alias='contentDate']) &lt; string($now)" />
    return false

    <xsl:value-of select="string(data[@alias='contentDate']) > string($now)" />
    return false

    Why the last is false?

    You could use

    <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:DateGreaterThan('2010-09-02T17:18:31','2010-11-18T11:41:00')"/>

    returns false

     


    <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:DateGreaterThan('2010-11-18T11:41:00','2010-09-02T17:18:31')"/>

    returns true

    There's a few static functions available in the umbraco.library class for comparing dates: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbracolibrary and http://umbraco.org/apiDocs/html/AllMembers_T_umbraco_library.htm

     

    Hope this helps.
