Check if calendar field is empty

Ok so i have a calendar field:

<p:calendar id="dateOfBirth" mode="popup" placeholder="Date Of Birth" navigator="true" yearRange="c-18:c" pattern="dd.MM.yyyy"/>

And in javascript i want to check if the field has been entered a date:

if($("#dateOfBirth").val() === ""){
    errors.push("dateOfBirth");
}

But it is not working. How can i make this equality in order to check that the user has skipped the field without entering anything?

p:calendar renders not just as a HTML input element. But it contains an input element which has the id you specified plus a postfix, which is _input. So your code should work if you change it to the following

if($("#dateOfBirth_input").val() === ""){
   errors.push("dateOfBirth");
}
