How to compare two datepicker dates using jQuery

This is my code:

var $from = $("#fromDate").datepicker('getDate');

var $to = $("#toDate").datepicker('getDate');

if($from > $to)

   alert("from date shouldn't greater than To date");

It is working if it is two dates in the same year. Otherwise, for example
fromDate='1/12/2012'(dd/mm/yyyy) toDate='18/6/2013'(dd/mm/yyyy), while you check the condition, it is not working. It throws an alert, which is given.

Auto limit your dates instead. In this example the second combo box won't allow you to pick a lower date than the one you pick on the first one.

$(document).ready(function() {



  $("#txtFromDate").datepicker({



    numberOfMonths: 2,



    onSelect: function(selected) {

      $("#txtToDate").datepicker("option", "minDate", selected)

    }

  });



  $("#txtToDate").datepicker({



      numberOfMonths: 2,



      onSelect: function(selected) {

         $("#txtFromDate").datepicker("option", "maxDate", selected)



      }

  });

});

Here is a working demo.
