Question

I have two jQuery datepickers that once changed, will trigger some ajax to grab all information between the two dates.

I want to run some code to check that the first date is smaller than the second, by converting to a date using this code:

function FormatUkDate(dateStr) { 
    dateStr = dateStr.split("/");
    return new Date(dateStr[2], dateStr[1] - 1, dateStr[0]);
}

This works great, but the problem is even if I enter a date of ’50/08/2011′ it still validates and converts that to a Javascript date, I believe by adding the additional number of days to the start date.

Is there a way to properly validate this please?

Thanks!
