Hi,
I want to do date comparison.
One condition is a date entered is greater than current date and date entered is less than a date+ 60 days

Second condition is entered date is not equal to already existing date

This is the formatting i have done for all dates

JavaScript

var auditDate = new Date(dString[2], dString[1] - 1, dString[0]);
auditDate.setDate(auditDate.getDate());
  if (auditDate && auditDate !=currentAuditDate)
{
//do something here
}

but its entering the if , even thought audit date and currentauditdate are same.
Both values being Mon Jan 19 00:00:00 UTC+5:30 2015

Can anyone please suggest a way to compare dates

Thanks
Arjun M

Solution 1

Try comparing the .valueOf() values for the dates:

JavaScript

if (auditDate && auditDate.valueOf() !== currentAuditDate.valueOf()){
    // do something here...
}
