Is there a reasonably easy method to make sure that an entered date is
valid, I.E. is not 30 Jan 99? I am using Time::Local to convert a date
entered through an HTML form into the epoch offset (or whatever you call it)
and would like to make sure that valid dates are entered. Thanks

I did this using a JavaScript function that runs before the form is
submitted to validate the date locally (in the client, using JavaScript
Date objects) before submission. Has the side benefit of giving the
user real time feed back as well without a send back to the server
