Datepicker marks valid content invalid when using custom format

[smuellerus]

When using a custom format like this:

$scope.format = 'dd.MM.yyyy';

.. it will mark a valid manually inputted date as invalid, for example:

22.07.2014

If you select the same date in Datepicker, it will be accepted. I noticed that if you manually enter

02.01.2014

into the field, it accidentally navigates to Feb 1 2014 even though this date means Jan 2 2014.

I am waiting for a fix - thanks in advance!

I am also experiencing this issue. While not a showstopper it would be nice if the validation worked correctly.

I'm just reviewing some datepicker issues as I also have some and found this ticket. I have to agree that date parsing is somehow broken on datepicker, but to be honest I can't get this particular date of "02.01.2014" parsed as Feb 1 2014 (I entered manually here http://angular-ui.github.io/bootstrap/#/datepicker). It's parsed correctly as "Thursday, January 2, 2014"
