Hi,
Whats the best way to ensure the user has entered a valid time string such as:
5:24 5.4
102:30 102.5
It will be entered into a UITextField therefore will be in a NSString.
I want to allow the user to enter the time in either hours and minutes (hh:mm) or hours and decimal minutes (hh.m).
In the hours minutes example they should be able to enter as many hours as the like but only between 0 - 59 minutes. With the hours decimal minutes I want them to only be able to enter again as many hours as the like but decimal minutes can only be 0 - 9.
Many Thanks
