How to read the value from a Datepicker?

The solution is to name the date field first like Don suggests:

I got it working by setting the id property of the input child of the datePicker, then using that id for the validation.
I do this in my page load setupValidation() function:
$("[name='startDate']").find('input').attr('id','inputStartDate');
then on submit of of the form, this now works to validate.
$("#inputStartDate").require('required');
