Datepicker: parseDate accepts dates with two year digits with format 'mm/dd/yy' which should require four year digits

[andrewwhitaker]

var d = "12/12/12";
var parsed = $.datepicker.parseDate("mm/dd/yy", d); // yields 12/12/2012, should not succeed.

Example: ​http://jsfiddle.net/WWJfn/

An exception should be thrown here instead of the date being parsed successfully.

Still an issue as of 1.9.2 - ​http://jsfiddle.net/tj_vantoll/en69t/.

Any chance of getting this fixed sooner than later please? We're using this in a date range control and the user input is getting messed up because we depend on parseDate to return a valid value only when the format matches the input.

If there's a workaround, it would be greatly appreicated. Thank you.

@PRISMAY If it's a blocker for you, then it seems it would be beneficial for you to dig in, track down the bug, figure out a fix, and submit a pull request.

Hi, i had a problem like yours and using something like this ​http://jsfiddle.net/FDAkp/ inside the jquery ui js solved my problem.

Excuse me if i'm doing it the wrong way and drop it.
