I want to check if the user has selected a valid date. When i call getDateFilteredComments()
method.
I need to capture that in the IF
condition.
$("#StartDate").datepicker({
dateFormat: "d M y"
});
function getDateFilteredComments() {
if (Condition) {
alert("Valid");
} else {
alert("Not Valid");
}
}

If you want to restrict the user to input anything and accept Date
from the data picker try this one JSFIDDLE.
Hope it will help you.

you can try this
<script type="text/javascript">
function fu(){
var text = document.getElementById("it").value;
var take = text.split('/');
var mo = parseInt(take[0], 10);
var da = parseInt(take[1], 10);
var ye = parseInt(take[2], 10);
var date = new Date(ye,mo-1,da);
if (date.getFullYear() == ye && date.getMonth() + 1 == mo && date.getDate()
== da) {
alert('Valid date input');
} else {
alert('Invalid date input');
}
}
</script>
<input type="text" id="it" placeholder="Add date..."/>
<input type="submit" id="ad" onclick="fu()" value="testd"/>

just convert your string to date using new Date(dateString) also change your date format I don't think that's valid
function getDateFilteredComments() {
if (new Date($("#StartDate").val()) != "Invalid Date") {
alert("Valid");
} else {
alert("Not Valid");
}
}
