We have users that want to enter date as mmddyyyy without slashes. They don't want to use the DATE type, so this will be a string/text. Also they would like to see this date displayed after they enter is with the slashes, so mm/dd/yyyy. Does anyone has a example, I guess javascript to validate what user entered is a valid date? fyi we noticed the Appian Date type does not validate that the date is valid if you manually enter the date, for example if you enter 13/99/2013 and tab away it does not tell you its invalid, but instead converts to some kind of date. Thanks!...

If you run the todate() function on your date, and if it's out of range, you'll get a message such as:
Date out of range (13992013)
