I have a "bug report" where they are complaining that when you enter invalid/non-parsable data (such as "oapsd") via the keyboard into a RadDatePicker or a RadTimePicker, the invalid input does not persist on postback. They wanted the invalid input to be preserved for the user to correct upon explicit prodding, rather than clearing it for them and asking them to do it over again.
Is this something we can do easily?

Hello Robert,
You can achieve the desired behavior as demonstrated below. Although you should not have any problems, keep in mind that this approach is technically a hack.
Kind regards,
