When I enter "31/12/2012" in my field (date format is MM/DD/YYYY), it changes the date to "7/12/2014" in the field. I would rather it error with a "not valid" error message.
I have inherited this code from a previous developer:
function dateRangeCheck(val, field) {
field.vtypeText = '';
var date = field.parseDate(val);
if (!date) {
field.vtypeText = val + ' is not a valid date - it must be in the format (MM/DD/YYYY).';
return false;
}
var retVal = true;
if (field.fromField) {
var fromField = Ext.getCmp(field.fromField);
var fromDate = fromField.parseDate(fromField.getValue());
// If we don't have a fromDate to validate with then return true
if (!fromDate)
return true;
retVal = (date >= fromDate);
if (retVal)
fromField.clearInvalid();
}
else if (field.toField) {
var toField = Ext.getCmp(field.toField);
var toDate = toField.parseDate(toField.getValue());
// If we don't have a toDate to validate with then return true
if (!toDate)
return true;
retVal = (date <= toDate);
if (retVal)
toField.clearInvalid();
}
if (!retVal) {
field.vtypeText = 'From Date must be less than or equal to To Date.';
}
return retVal;
}
When I try to use the default 'daterange' vtype, as soon as I type a "3" in the field, it throws a JS runtime exception 'object doesn't support this property or method'.

Note that you can set
Date.useStrict = true
globally and the DateField will use that by default.For Ext 4+ it would be
Ext.Date.useStrict = true
instead.
