If you also want to validate the date (no Jun 31, for instance), it's
going to be tough or impossible to do in a regex. You can use one or
more regexes plus some code to parse and check the date, however. Do
you want to do this in CF, or in JavaScript on the client side? In CF,
can't you just use isDate()?
