I am serializing and deserializing an object and persisting the serialized XML into the database.

My class definition contains a date field.
However I have problems when I try to deserialize the xml back to my defined object. Its complaining that the serialized XML was in invalid format.
Here are my serialization and deserialization codes

public static T GetDeSerializedObj<T>(string strXML)
        {
            StringReader sr = new StringReader(strXML);

            T result = default(T);
            try
            {
                XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(T));
                result = (T)serializer.Deserialize(sr);
            }
            catch (FileNotFoundException)
            {
                result = default(T);
            }
            return result;
        }

        public static string GetSerializedXML<T>(T input)
        {
            StringBuilder sbOutput = new StringBuilder();

            // XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(T));
            XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(input.GetType());
            using (StringWriter sw = new StringWriter(sbOutput))
            {
                serializer.Serialize(sw, input);
            }
            return sbOutput.ToString();
        }


Here is the sample XML

<ClassInfo xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <DisplayID>1</DisplayID>
  <ClassID>25</SubmissionID>
  <CreatedTime>1800-01-01T00:00:00</CreatedTime>
  <DateSubmitted>2007-07-13T10:14.9992703+08:00</DateSubmitted>
  <ReceivedMessage />
</ClassInfo>

I noticed that the date submitted value is "2007-07-13T10:14.9992703+08:00" which should be 2007-07-13T10:14:00.9992703+08:00

for it to be a valid XML.

I tried to reproduce it by serializing a ClassInfo object with the seconds timefield set to 0 but I could not reproduce the error.

How is this possible?
