SSIS Expression to convert US date to ISO Date mm/dd/yyyy to yyyy-mm-dd

I developed the following SSIS expression to convert a US date to an Australian date.

(DT_DATE)(TOKEN(datestart,"/",3) + "-" + TOKEN(datestart,"/",1) + "-" + TOKEN(datestart,"/",2))

Uses SSIS's token function as opposed to substring's etc...  I've found token to be more reliable and better suited to this outcome.

Javascript Form Validation

It's real simple. All you need to do is call a javascript function in a html  " onsubmit " in the form tag as a javascript return, like this       <form method="post" action="dosomething.php" onsubmit="return validateForm();"> If the code completes ok, the form is then sent to the page listed in "action" http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_form_validation.asp If the function specified in the onsubmit returns false, then the form is not sent to the page mentioned in action.
