DATE VALIDATION dd/mm/yyyy (date field with manual entry)
Is there a way to stop people filling in date fields manually?
since there is a calendar, there not only is no need for manual entry but it also avoids input error..
When I try to validate a date, it will either accept the manual date, or the calendar date but never both.
Does somebody have a solution for this? .. either to validate both the calendar date & manual entry (entered in dd/mm/yyyy)
Or
to prevent users from typing inside the date field (& use the calendar!)
(or prevent them from typing anything other than dd/mm/yyyy)
('ve tried regular expressions but it does not accept the value from the calendar)
Thanks hopefully!
