Have a look at the following thread especially at the code provided in post #9 :
By "use cal", i was thinking : use it to validate that the entered date is OK (also handle leap year)
Code:
echo "Enter the year on 4 digit) :"
read y
echo "Enter the month on 2 digit) :"
read m
echo "Enter the day on 2 digit) :"
read d
chk_date(){
typeset -i y m d
y="${1%????}" ; t="${1%??}" ; m="${t#$y}" ; d="${1#??????}"
cal $m $y 2>/dev/null | tail +3 | sed -e 'N;N;N;N;N;s/\n/ /g' | grep " $d" >/dev/null 2>&1 && return 0 || return 1
}
chk_date "$y$m$d" && echo "Date Valide" || echo "Date not Valide"
Of course this short code does not behave exactly the way you want, but it gives some clue... and it handles leap year

Of course if you have some recent date tools that can handle it better, you should of course use it instead of my hugly code

html::formhandler::field::date
HTML::FormHandler::Field::Date(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTML::FormHandler::Field::Date(3pm)NAME
HTML::FormHandler::Field::Date - a date field with formats
VERSION
version 0.40013
SUMMARY
This field may be used with the jQuery Datepicker plugin.
You can specify the format for the date using jQuery formatDate strings or DateTime strftime formats. (Default format is format =>
'%Y-%m-%d'.)
d - "%e" - day of month (no leading zero)
dd - "%d" - day of month (two digit)
o - "%{day_of_year}" - day of the year (no leading zeros)
oo - "%j" - day of the year (three digit)
D - "%a" - day name short
DD - "%A" - day name long
m - "%{day_of_month" - month of year (no leading zero)
mm - "%m" - month of year (two digit) "%m"
M - "%b" - month name short
MM - "%B" - month name long
y - "%y" - year (two digit)
yy - "%Y" - year (four digit)
@ - "%s" - Unix timestamp (ms since 01/01/1970)
For example:
has_field 'start_date' => ( type => 'Date', format => "dd/mm/y" );
or
has_field 'start_date' => ( type => 'Date', format => "%d/%m/%y" );
You can also set 'date_end' and 'date_start' attributes for validation of the date range. Use iso_8601 formats for these dates ("yyyy-mm-
dd");
has_field 'start_date' => ( type => 'Date', date_start => "2009-12-25" );
Customize error messages 'date_early' and 'date_late':
has_field 'start_date' => ( type => 'Date,
messages => { date_early => 'Pick a later date',
date_late => 'Pick an earlier date', } );
If form has 'is_html5' flag active it will render <input type="date" ... /> instead of type="text"
