Eric,
I appreciate the response, sorry for the late reply. Looking into the links you sent.
Does WA "client side validation" in the toolkit only deal with "date" and not "datetime"?
I tried also using "date" instead of "datetime" and using the WA Validation Toolkit see my post here at bottom of this thread:

Date seems like an easier format to work with, but ran into validation issues?
