Try without the semicolon and without the return.
onsubmit="return validateForm(this,arrFormValidation) && ValidateFormDate();"
A compound statement like this will return true only if both items are true. Consider these examples:
return true && true; // returns true
return false && whatever; // parser doesn't even evaluate "whatever", it just returns false.
