Hello,
Awhile ago, I clumsily implemented Jorn's fantastic validation plugin to validate a birthday field. The implementation wasn't hard, but getting the page in general to work how I want is tricky. I'm wondering if anyone has an idea in how I might accomplish these goals: 1. Validate based on DROPDOWNS, not a text input (I tried text input and put clear "MM-DD-YYYY" tags, but people keep doing DD-MM which passes validation but often completely mangles the date due to things like 20-01-1981). So for example, dropdown one would be Jan, Feb, Mar, etc. This would be easy for me to build the date using PHP, but am not sure how I'd do it before passing it immediately to the validator. 2. Allow partial dates. Again, this would be something I could do in PHP (just using a default 01-01-YYYY if they only input a year, for example), but am not sure how I'd do this prior to getting it to the validator. I'd probably only want to deal with partial date meaning only a year (or a year and a month), not just a day and a month. Also, how robust is the birthdate validator? Meaning, is it just checking if it's a valid date, or does it check for things like "does this day actually exist in this month (31st, for example)", or "was there actually this date in this year (ex: leap year) Thanks, I know this question is kind of vague and general. :) -Kim -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Need-help-with-birthdate-validation-tp14422600s27240p14422600.html Sent from the jQuery General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
