Look at the CF isDate and isNumeric functions for server side validation;
For client side, here's some javascript for date format validation:
var dateObj = new Date(<formInput>);
if (isNaN(dateObj.valueOf()))
return false;
For numeric, use isNaN.

Subject: Simple validation
I am in desperate need of a simple validation of two types of form fields.
1. Date field (not a cfform just a plain form) - must validate that data
entered is a date
2. Number field (not a cfform just a plain form) - must validate that data
entered is a number
Thanks
Stephanie
