Date Validation

[hayley]

Hi,

I'm new to VBScript and was wondering if anyone could help with a query I have.

I have a web page in asp where the user inputs a start date and an end date in html input boxes. I would like the dates to default to, and display, the present date (in the format dd/mm/yyyy) and also include code to check that the dates entered are valid. Can anyone help?

Thanks very much!

hey guy

To set your dates default to the current date use
<input id=YourtextboxId name=YourTextboxname Value=&quot;<%=now%>&quot;> (HTML CODE)
the &quot;now&quot; command will put the current date into the text box.

to validate the date that is in the text box.Use.
Mydate= Request.Form(&quot;The Name of Your TextBox where you enter your date&quot
if IsDate(MyDate)then
do what ever
else
Error Message
end if
this is all done in vbscript.

I hope this helps
