Create a time picker in simple XML?

[dang]

I'm familiar with creating time range pickers in advanced XML. I'm wondering if it is possible to use a time range picker in simple XML, and if so, what would the block of code look like?

I've come across this answer, but when I add the following code, the xml does not parse correctly.

    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
      <dashboard>
        <label>MYTEST TimePicker</label>
          <row>
          <input type="time"/>    
          <input type="dropdown" token="timeSpan">
              <label>Time span for charts</label>
              <default>span=4h</span>
              <choice value="span=5m">5 Minute</choice>
              <choice value="span=10m">10 Minutes</choice>
              <choice value="span=1h">1 hour</choice>
              <choice value="span=4h">4 hours</choice>
              <choice value="span=24h">24 hours</choice>    
           </input>
          </row>
          <row>
            <table>
              <searchName>blah blah blah</searchName>
              ...

This works. If you go into edit mode after this has been configured and drag the time picker out of the panel, it will reswizzle the dashboard to a form.

Hack:
    <dashboard>
        <label>Analytics</label>
      <row>
       <panel>
        <input type="time" searchWhenChanged="true">
          <label>Time Range for All Panels</label>
          <default>
             <earliestTime>-60m@m</earliestTime>
             <latestTime>now</latestTime>
          </default>
        </input>
       </panel>
      </row>

After moving the time picker in edit mode (out of the panel to the top of the screen.)

    <form>
      <label>Analytics</label>
      <fieldset submitButton="false" autoRun="true">
        <input type="time" searchWhenChanged="true">
          <label></label>
          <default>
            <earliestTime>-7d@d</earliestTime>
            <latestTime>now</latestTime>
          </default>
        </input>
      </fieldset>
      <row>

You need to enclose your inputs inside of a fieldset, not a row, and yes, you also need to make the view a form, not a dashboard. See the examples in the docs.

I think this is possible but you probably need to use a form element to make the input form work correctly for a simple XML dashboard.

Thanks, Kate. I'll need to do a little more digging into using forms in my searches if I choose to go down that route.
