Hello.  
I'm dealing with MySQL queries and I'm having troubles using TimePicker.  
For time to select I'm using "ui\_text\_input" in "Time Picker" mode.  
The problem is:

- I can't force the 24 hours input format
- The value of Node include date value. (Problem with store / restore value)  
Is there some "simple" Time picker in HH:MM format (23:59) 24-hrs?

Thanks.

As per the info tab for the node:

> The time input type returns a number of milliseconds from midnight.

if you enter 00:01 it returns 60000  
if you enter 23:59 it returns 86340000

What is the format you need it changed to?

the text input in time mode is just using the html5 input rendering of your browser - so it picks up the format from your browser locale.

Thanks for answers but the question remains:

- I can't force the 24 hours input format (depends on web browser)  
Is there some "simple" Time picker in HH:MM format (23:59) 24-hrs?
