  <script>
    var oneDay = 24*60*60*1000; // hours*minutes*seconds*milliseconds
    var firstDate = new Date(2008,01,12);
    var secondDate = new Date(2008,01,22);
    var diffDays = Math.round(Math.abs((firstDate.getTime()-secondDate.getTime())/(oneDay)));
  </script>

This may help you...

var Date1 = new Date (2012, 6, 12);
var Date2 = new Date (2014, 3, 16);
var Days = Math.floor((Date2.getTime() - Date1.getTime())/(1000*60*60*24));

try this

<input id="first" value="1/1/2000"/>
<input id="second" value="1/1/2001"/>

<script>
  alert(datediff("day", first, second)); // what goes here?
</script>

your function

function parseDate(str) {
    var mdy = str.split('/')
    return new Date(mdy[2], mdy[0]-1, mdy[1]);
}

function daydiff(first, second) {
    return (second-first)/(1000*60*60*24)
}

alert(daydiff(parseDate($('#first').val()), parseDate($('#second').val())));
