title: MVC 4 how to validate a non-US date with client validation?
body: <p>I have a situation where I am having trouble with the client side validation of a datetime field.  When I try to submit it keeps telling me the date is invalid (27/7/2013).  But if I turn the date into US format it works (07/27/2013).</p>
  
  <p>My view model is as follows,</p>
  
  <pre><code>[DataType(DataType.Date), DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]
  public DateTime? AuditDate { get; set; }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Index.html</p>
  
  <pre><code> @Html.TextBoxFor(m =&gt; m.AuditDate)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have updated my web.config</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;globalization culture="en-AU" uiCulture="en-AU" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What have I missed out on?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
