Here is a sample code for an html input date control include DATE validation!
I searched a lot for such method for integration with PHP page but was little difficult.
Here is the HTML CODE:
<input id="inputDate1" name="Field1" value="21/07/2006" type="text" onblur="validateDate(this, '/')" maxlength="10">
<button onclick="setTodayDate(this.previousSibling, '/')">today</button>
<button onclick="setTodayDate(this.previousSibling, '/')">today</button>
Here is the JAVASCRIPT CODE:
function validateDate(p_inputObj, delim)
{
var text = p_inputObj.value;
var errorMsgs = "Following error(s) :\n";
var isDateCorrect = true;
var delim1 = text.indexOf(delim);
var delim2 = text.indexOf(delim, delim1+1);
if (delim2 <= delim1)
{
isDateCorrect = false;
errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Must be in format of dd/mm/yyyy like (21/09/2008)\n";
}
else
{
var day = parseInt(text.substring(0, delim1), 10);
var splitter1 = text.substring(delim1, delim1+1);
var month = parseInt(text.substring(delim1+1, delim2), 10);
var splitter2 = text.substring(delim2, delim2+1);
var year = parseInt(text.substring(delim2+1), 10);
if (isNaN(day) || isNaN(month) || isNaN(year))
{
isDateCorrect = false;
if (isNaN(day)) { errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Day not in correct format!\n"; }
if (isNaN(month)) { errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Month not in correct format!\n"; }
if (isNaN(year)) { errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Year not in correct format!\n"; }
}
else
{
if (day<1)
{
errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Day must be between grater than 0\n";
isDateCorrect = false;
}
if (month>12 || month<1)
{
isDateCorrect = false;
errorMsgs = errorMsgs + "- Month must be between 01 to 12\n";

Date format if dd/MM/yyyy but it can also be MM/dd/yy or yyyy!
Enjoy... :)
