hi

I have 2 textboxes for entry of start and end dates. I allow typing in the
textboxes also. I have 2 compareValidator fields as well to validate the 2
textboxes which work fine. Upon text change (onchange event) of the
textboxes, I have written a javascript function (called formatDate) to
format the date - that is, if the date is in format 1/1/2003, the function
will format it to 01/01/2003.
Normally, when the textboxes lose focus, the CompareValidators are executed
automatically. I don't know whether the function is executed first (the one
that I wrote on onchange event) or the compareValidators ?

My question:
I want to call the validators first then call the function i.e if the
validation succeeds then I want to call the formatDate function and if the
validation fails then don't call the formatDate function. Is this possible ?
