there is a syntax error which would be listed in the Error Console. and line 48-50 do not make sense when compared to line 46.

additionally, your switch() statement is highly susceptible to execute checks you do not intend.

tip: the most simple leap year test I know:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function checkDay(day, month, year)

{

    return (new Date(year, month-1, day).getMonth() == month-1);

//  equivalent to

//  return (new Date(year, month-1, day).getDate() == day);

}
