Custom field of format type date is not validated

Hi, I have hikashop business edition (latest version).
I have a custom field of format date.
The format in hikashop is defined as %d.%m.%y
However, this is not validated. The user can enter any date, also not existing ones, e.g. 55.20.2012

Please advise how to make the validation working.

Thanks and br

Hi,
Thanks for the answer.
I do not understand, why the date is not validate.
According to this post, there is a function check_date that verifies the entered date:

www.hikashop.com/en/forum/4-how-to/33707...tom-field.html#33707

Quote:
It will be in all versions of course.
It will be released with next version in several weeks.

If you want it now, you can just add the code:
if(!selectedDate){
selObj.value=\'\';
alert(\''.JText::_('INCORRECT_DATE_FORMAT',true).'\');
return false;
}

after the line:
var selectedDate = new Date(selObj.value);

in that same file and it will display an error message when the date doesn't have the correct format.
Also, the line below will have to be added to your translation file:
INCORRECT_DATE_FORMAT="Incorrect date format"

Could you please clarify ?

Thanks and br

Hi Nick.
There's any way to change the date to display the month in letters instead of numbers in a custom field
