Try something like this.

[html]

var startdate = Date.parse(startDateItem.getValue());
var expiryDate = Date.parse(expiryDateItem.getValue());
if (startdate > expiryDate)
{
alert (Not possible);
}else
{
.
.
.
.}

[/html]

Thanks

Hi ,

You can do something like that...

var dateItem_cd = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Creation Date");
var dateItem_ed = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Expiration Date");

function compDate(dateItem_cd, dateItem_ed)
{
var date = dateItem_cd.getValue();
var len = date.length;
var index = date.indexOf(" ");
var index1 = date.indexOf(",");

var month = date.substring(0,index);
var day = date.substring(index+1,index+3);
var year = date.substring(index1+2,index1+6);

var date1 = dateItem_ed.getValue();
var len1 = date1.length;
var index2 = date1.indexOf(" ");
var index3 = date1.indexOf(",");

var month1 = date1.substring(0,index2);
var day1 = date1.substring(index2+1,index2+3);
var year1 = date1.substring(index3+2,len1);

var createMonth = getMonth(month);
var expMonth = getMonth(month1);

if(year1 {
alert("Please enter an expiry date greater than creation date.");
return false;
}

if(year == year1 && expMonth < createMonth)
{
alert("Please enter an expiry date greater than creation date.");
return false;
}

if(year == year1 && expMonth == createMonth && date1 < date)
{
alert("Please enter an expiry date greater than creation date.");
return false;
}

return true;
}
