    function validateform()
    {
     if (trimAll(document.getElementById("<%=txtFromDate.ClientID %>").value) != "") {
   if (!isDate(trimAll(document.getElementById("<%=txtFromDate.ClientID %>").value)))
         msg = msg + "
Please enter valid From Date in mm/dd/yyyy format\n";
   else {
       var toDate = new Date();
       var txtdate = document.getElementById("<%=txtFromDate.ClientID %>").value;
       var d1 = new Date(txtdate)
   if (Date.parse(txtdate) > Date.parse(toDate)) {                   
         msg = msg + "
From date must be less than or equal to today's date\n";
   }
  }
}

     if (trimAll(document.getElementById("<%=txtToDate.ClientID %>").value) != "") {
            if (!isDate(trimAll(document.getElementById("<%=txtToDate.ClientID %>").value)))
                msg = msg + "
Please enter valid To Date in mm/dd/yyyy format\n";
            else {
                var toDate = new Date();
                var txtdate = document.getElementById("<%=txtToDate.ClientID %>").value;
                var d1 = new Date(txtdate)

                if (Date.parse(txtdate) > Date.parse(toDate)) {
                    msg = msg + "
To date must be less than or equal to today's date\n"; 
                  }
                 }
                }
