  Hello,

  use jquery datepicker and set the date selection below today. so no need to check it........... and still you want to test...then also you can check by jquery.......

  If you are using jQuery UI DatePicker, you can disable future date, check following:

  If you want to validate server side, you can take idea from following:

  Hi....

  You can do it like:-

  DateTime Today=DateTime.Now;
  DateTime Birthday=Convert.ToDateTime(BirthdayTextBox.Text);
  
  int Compare=DateTime.Compare(Today,Birthday);
  
  if(Compare<0)
    {
                //  Today is earlier
   
    }
  
  else
    {
             // Today is equal or later
  
    }

  you can see it on :

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.compare.aspx
  
  

  Thanks and regards

              minDate: new Date('1990/01/01'),

              maxDate: '-1D'
          });

  this is working for me also, but while passing max date , im my model i used

  public string date1
  {
  get;
  set;
  }

  string date1 = System.DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();

  in my view i used

  <script type="text/javascript">
  $(function () {
  $('#DateOfBirth').datepick({ dateFormat: 'mm/dd/yyyy', minDate: new Date('1987/01/01'),
  maxDate: new Date('date1')
  });
  });
  </script>

  the max date its taking as jan 2001, i want the max date as todays date

  MARK AS NASWER IF THIS WORKS..
