Sure. The slash notation should only be employed if one wanted to submit time interval data as a single entity to the server. HTML has no form widget, i.e. ‘input’ type, supporting that (yet). Usually one or, more commonly, two entities / form elements out of “start”, “end” and “duration” are used instead.
