you may get weird results in the future from converting dates (like now())
to strings using dateformat or lsdateformat and then doing date functions on
them.
most of the time it will work but it is always best to only do date
functions on date objects then format to a string for output.
that is why I suggested lsparsedate which will return a valid date object
from your form variable. and you can use now() directly in the dateCompare.
Just a warning - it has bitten me in the past. :-)
