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!...

Does anyone know why we can't use functions on a form? For example just as a test on a Text field I added a "Event Rule" on "Change". The script is "var testDate = todate(11122014)". So when Im on this field on the form an tab away after entering something I get an exception thrown saying the rule is invalid. Does anyone know what is wrong with the script? Thanks!
