title: Kendo date picker custom date format
body: <p>I have an application which allows the customer to set the date format by setting screen.
  I change the current thread culture date format, and set the date and parsing format in the kendo date picker.</p>
  
  <pre><code>  DateTimeFormatInfo datetimeFormat = new DateTimeFormatInfo();
    datetimeFormat.FullDateTimePattern = "MM.dd.yyyy hh:mm tt"; //(set static for testing)
    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat = datetimeFormat;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My problem is when I change the date format a client side validation error returns says that the field should be a date.
  I tried to set custom rule in the kendo validator but that not helps me because when I change the date this rule not fired.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("myForm").kendoValidator(
                  {
                      rules: {
                         dateValidation: function(input)
                          {
                              if (input.is("[data-role=datepicker]")) {
                                  // My code should be here
                              }
                              return true;
                          }
  }});
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Anyone can help me to solve this issue.</p>
