RE: [xsl] Date Comparison using ">=" and "<=" doesn't work - WHY!?!?

Thanks for the reply. Still haven't been able to figure this one out. By the way, how does one go about viewing these posting on the site itself (I'm receiving them in my e-mail client) ... I did a search for "date comparison" at http://www.biglist.com/lists/xsl-list/archives/ but the posting I've made today don't show up. Would you be so kind as to direct me to the right page to view these postings ... Thanks! >>> dionh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 03/11/02 03:02PM >>> Actually in this particular case it won't, because date is not an XSLT type. Therefore the two operands will be converted as if by the number() function. I believe MSXSL4 has a method of comparing dates, though...

You have to use the escaped versions: < and > (well, technically, only the "<" character must be escaped, but it's best to do both). So the comparison should be date >='2/10/02' and Date <='2/15/2002' Weird, I know. But it works. Taken from Mike Kay's book XSLT 2d Edition, page 416.
