Date validation for "MM/YYYY" using jQuery

You may done validation for "dd/mm/yyyy" format but today I need to do validation for "MM/YYYY" format. The end user will input the date in textbox and I need to validate the date. Below jQuery code validates the date using regular expression in "MM/YYYY" format only using jQuery.

jQuery Code:

$(document).ready(function() {   $('#txtDate').blur(function() {       if(validateDate('txtDate'))       {           alert('Date is valid');       }       else       {           alert('Invalid Date!!!');       }    }); });  //Functions Starts function validateDate(txtDate){    var txtVal = document.getElementById(txtDate).value;    var filter = new RegExp("(0[123456789]|10|11|12)([/])([1-2][0-9][0-9][0-9])");    if(filter.test(txtVal))       return true;    else      return false; }​ //Functions Ends // 

The above code validates the date for year 1000-2999. Don't forget to set the maxlength of text box to 7.

See result below:
