you don't need date validator. doesn't back upwards dd/mm/yyyy format, , that's why getting "please come in valid date" message input 13/01/2014. have dateita validator, uses dd/mm/yyyy format need.

just date validator, code dategreaterthan , datelessthan calls new date input string , has same issue parsing dates. can utilize function parse date:

function parsedmy(value) { var date = value.split("/"); var d = parseint(date[0], 10), m = parseint(date[1], 10), y = parseint(date[2], 10); homecoming new date(y, m - 1, d); }
