Hi guys,  
I am trying to validate a date according to this format: dd MMM yyyy

Not only should the date string conform to this format, it must be a valid date as well.

I’ve tried googling for it but haven’t found any good scripts to do that. Anyone here has any good recommendations?

Thanks in advance.
