Hello,

DateTimeFormatter fmt = DateTimeFormat.forStyle('SS').withLocale(locale) DateTime dt = fmt.parseDateTime("11/4/03 8:14 PM");

the above statement will parse the string correctly, and save as DateTime (Joda Time).

Now how to represent the beginning of a day. The below fails with DateTime dt = fmt.parseDateTime("11/4/03 00:01 AM");

Cannot parse "11/4/03 00:01 AM": Value 0 for clockhourOfHalfday must be in the range [1,12]

I'm obviously confused with the standards, like what is the short representation of the beginning of a day.

thanks.
