Try the below code:

var form = document.forms[0];

Var Fromdate = new Date(form.F_Date.value);

var Todate = new Date(form.T_Date.value);

if (Fromdate.getTime() >= Todate.getTime()) {

msg += “\r To Date should be grater than From Date”;

msgflag = “true”

}

Here is the code … for Date you can use a simple text field , look at the code below its ´very simple and reusable …

FromDate = document.forms[0].ValidFromTx.value;

var FromDateDT= FromDate.split(“.”);

var FromDateDTresult = FromDateDT[1]+“/”+FromDateDT[2]+“/”+FromDateDT[0];

startdate = new Date(FromDateDTresult);

ToDate = document.forms[0].ValidToTx.value;

var ToDateDT= ToDate.split(“.”);;

var ToDateDTresult =ToDateDT[1]+“/”+ToDateDT[2]+“/”+ToDateDT[0];

enddate = new Date(ToDateDTresult);

if (Date.parse(startdate)>Date.parse(enddate))

{

 alert("From Date cannot be less than To Date . Please Verify  !!!");

 document.forms[0].ConditionValidFromTx.focus();

 return false ;

}

else

{

alert (“Valid Date Information information saved …”);
