[Validate] Validation of dates does not quite work

[chitoiup]

According to the date method, 30/30/2008 is a valid date. Maybe use a regex in the function instead of calling Date().

So far all date methods included in the validation plugin check only date formats, not sanity. See http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/date

If you need more than that, take a look a Datejs: http://www.datejs.com/ I don't (yet) want to include that in the validation plugin, as even the base package is 25kb, compressed. It supports a ton more than just checking formats.
