  }

I've got following input dates which I want to check if the end date isn't before the start date:

Input: Start => 31/03/10 End=> 07/03/10 Output: The start date (2010-03-31) must be before the end date (2010-03-07)

Can you in some way change the date output? I need the error message to set the date format the same as the input. Also my input fields are set with the wrong date format when the error appears.

Tried several things, but no luck at this moment. Didn't find a solution or information on symfony it self.

I'm using symfony version 1.2.11
