Hi,

I realized that is a DateFormat class behavior:

Simple test:

	public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException {
		DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm");
		String hour = "29:05";
		Date d = df.parse(hour);
		System.out.println(df.format(d));
	}

prints: 05:05. Someone had the same problem?

But I won't this behavior. I need the time between 00:00 and 23:59.

I see that datebox has a lenient (see Datebox.setLenient) attribute, but timebox hasn't, why?

Not really!

You try typing 29:05 on textbox? It turns 05:05 on blur! If I receive an exception (WrongValueException binded on componet) I would be very happy!

I think the timebox should have a lenient attribute just as datebox has.

Not just visual effect, but correct validation. 29:00 isn't valid hour!!!
I opened an issue: http://tracker.zkoss.org/browse/ZK-1199

I think there are two manner to fix this:

1) Apply correct client side regex mask (javascript) on the timebox (imho, best fix) or

2) Add lenient attribute that throws WrongValueException if can't parse time. When I set setLenient(false) to DateFormat parsing string "29:00", ParseException throws;

Hi,

A paliative solution would be setting constraint 'no future' that invalidate 'next day' time :

<timebox id="hour" format="HH:mm" constraint="no future: Invalid time"></timebox>

then, typing 25:30, the validation appears.
