I have a requirement in which according to the dropdown value selected, i need to call the DB and set the respective details of the employee. I am able to retrive all the fields with the help of "evaluateServerSideExpression" except with DateOfBirth field

Here is the script that i am using in the change event of dropdown.

FormAPI.evaluateServerSideExpression(function(e){window.FormAPI.setValue("dob",e);}, "=rule!getEmployeeDOB("+FormAPI.getValue("dropdown18").id")");

getEmployeeDOB gives me the Date when i am testing the expression individually, but the date field in the form is not filled at all. It is returning some integer when i debugged with alert(e);

Please let me know if anybody have idea......

Using FormAPI.setvalue we can't set the Value in date field. Instead You can use JQuery.
A sample jQuery to set 'Date'/ 'Date Time' fields.
$('#date_date_'+dateFieldID+'_valueDateSingle_fd_component_'+window.FormDesigner.runtimeNamespace+dateFieldID+'_').val(newDate);
$('#date_date_'+dateFieldID+'_valueDateSingle_fd_component_'+window.FormDesigner.runtimeNamespace+dateFieldID+'_').trigger('change');
