Hi Friends

I am trying method
function ValidateDates()
{
//ear the message first
var errorDiv = document.getElementById("error_div");
errorDiv.innerHTML = "";


//Get both datesvar startDate = eo_GetObject("OpenDatePicker").getSelectedDate();
var startDate = document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_ArrivalDatePicker");
var endDate = document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_DepartureDatePicker");
alert(startDate);
//Check if both dates are provided
if ((startDate == null) || (endDate == null))
{

errorDiv.innerHTML = "Please enter both dates.";
return false;
}
if (startDate.valueOf() > endDate.valueOf())
{
alert("The start date must be before the end date.");
errorDiv.innerHTML = "The start date must be before the end date.";
return false;
}
}

This is the standard method suggested for checking the DatePicker at the client side. But i am not able to get the control i see. I try to get the Datepicker and i see it from alert. it show [Object]. That means i think i am not able to get the Datepicker.

Any suggestions or help would be appreicated.

Thanks

Cheers

eo_GetObject("OpenDatePicker").getSelectedDate() is the correct way to get date value from our date picker. document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_ArrivalDatePicker") is wrong. It will get you the DHTML object, not the date.
