I need to do dd/mm/yyyy - I accidentally ignored my mistake within my error message. How would I switch your regex around to use dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy

    Just switch before and after the first / 
    /^(?:[01]\d\/[0-3]\d\/(?:19|20)\d\d)?$/

    But the test data you said you used was 03/30/2007 which is MM/DD/YYYY
