Date Validation for 2007/2008 Problem

I am using the validator (love it!) but having a problem validating that an End
date is greater than a Start date when the Start date is in 2007 and the End
date is in 2008.


I have entered the Dateformat of 'mm/dd/yyyy' in validation.js and this is the
format on my server.


Here is an example of my custom validation:
{name: "endDate", type: "custom", expression:
"startEndFunction(this.form.endDate.value, this.form.startDate.value)",
message: "The End Date must be greater than the Start Date"},


Here is my function:
// If a date is entered in the End Date field, it must be greater than the
entry in the Start Date field.
function startEndFunction(entered, start){
if (entered != "") {
return entered > start
}
return true
}


Any suggestions would be much appreciated.


Thanks!
