Use the Date object in JS:
(Haven't tested this, coding off the cuff):
objFrmDate = new Date(frm.year.value,frm.month.value,frm.days.value);
objToday = new Date();
// getTime method converts to ms since 1/1/70, allowing for absolute
date comparison
numFrmDate = objFrmDate.getTime();
numToday = objToday.getTime();
if (numFrmDate >= numToday) {
// date is greater than or equal to today
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
Good info on the date object:

Subject: JavaScript - Validation of Date - 3 Drop down lits
Hi,
Does any body have Javascript code snippet that validates the date.
I have a 3 drop lists (Year- 02 format , Month - 01 format, day - 01
format)
I have to check the date selected by the user is greater or equal to
today's date .
I am combining all the three values
I am stuck with this, as it is giving the int value of the combined
string
(parseInt()) as 0.
I think there is a better way of doing this.
Thanks in advance.
