Date Comparison

Nitesh

I'm using below code for date validation through FORM API...

function validation()
{
var dateItem = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Creation Date");
if(!dateValidate(dateItem))
return false;
var dateItem = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Publish Date");
if(!dateValidate(dateItem))
return false;
var dateItem = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Expiration Date");
if(!dateValidate(dateItem))
return false;

return true;
}


can you please tell me how to compare two dates here.. Like I want my Expiration Date always greater than Creation Date..

Thanks & Regards,
Nitesh

You need to change the dates into a consistant format and then compare them - you will probably want to use javascript's Date object (use google search for "javascript date object" for tutorials and examples)
