Compare two date formats in javascript/jquery

It’s quite simple:

if(new Date(fit_start_time) <= new Date(fit_end_time))
{//compare end <=, not >=
    //your code here
}

Comparing 2 Date instances will work just fine. It’ll just call valueOf implicitly, coercing the Date instances to integers, which can be compared using all comparison operators. Well, to be 100% accurate: the Date instances will be coerced to the Number type, since JS doesn’t know of integers or floats, they’re all signed 64bit IEEE 754 double precision floating point numbers.
