    problem comparing dates

    Hi,

    For a listing of conferences I want to show the upcoming conferences under the heading 'upcoming conferences'. The past conferences must be shown under the heading 'past conferences'.

    So I try to compare the date property of the conference with the currentdate like this:

    <xsl:when test="umbraco.library:DateGreaterThanOrEqual(conferenceDate,currentDate)">

    but this generates an xslt error

    Anyone knows how to solve this?

    Thanks for your help,

    Anthony Candaele

    I forgot to mention that conferenceDate is of data type 'Date Picker'

    I guess I should convert the Datepicker values 'conferenceDate' and 'currentDate' to string values, only how do you convert a date to a string in Xslt?

    tried:

    <xsl:when test="umbraco.library:DateGreaterThan(string(conferenceDate), string(currentDate))">

    but not working either :(

    well watha y'know, just tried this:

    <xsl:when test="conferenceDate &lt; currentDate">

    and it works!

    Or how people can make things more complicated than they are :)
