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.
