How to compare two date values with jQuery [duplicate]

Answer 1

var startDate = $('#start_date').val().replace(/-/g,'/');
var endDate = $('#end_date').val().replace(/-/g,'/');

if(startDate > endDate){
   // do your stuff here...
}

Answer 2

If you are also using jQuery ui, in particular datepicker, you can use $.datepicker.parseDate(format, string) to turn your date strings into a JavaScript Date object, which you can then compare using the standard < and >

Answer 3

Once you are able to parse those strings into a Date object comparing them is easy (Using the < operator). Parsing the dates will depend on the format. You may take a look at Datejs which might simplify this task.

Answer 4

var startDt=document.getElementById("startDateId").value;
var endDt=document.getElementById("endDateId").value;

if( (new Date(startDt).getTime() > new Date(endDt).getTime()))
{
