I don't get it:
use Time::Local;
$time = timelocal(0,0,0,31,1,101); # February 31, 2001 (!)
print scalar localtime($time); # says March 3, 2001
timelocal fixes the date, I want something that returns false for an
invalid date.
the other fixes suggested are greatly appreciated. I've done my share of
javascript and the thing that gets me about it is that if you're
serious, you still have to validate server-side in case a browser has
it disabled or doesn't support it. so you end up doing the work twice,
doing great violence to the Laziness principle.
