Why aren't you using the regex validator?

Not. I think it should be a valid date (no formatting)

ASP.net automatically detects client information about the client. This information is used to enable formatting such as date, currency, etc.

You can override this with code (something like):

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = 
    CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-GB");
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture =
    new CultureInfo("en-GB");

Or globally in the web.config file:

<globalization requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8"
    culture="en-GB" uiCulture="en-GB" />

Of course, this can have negative / positive side effects for the rest of your application, as it will affect other numbers / dates, but maybe this is your intention.
