Custom validation script - Error on multi-page form

I followed this tutorial to calculate and validate against a person's age using a date picker field: http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/check-date-greater-than-18-yrs

The problem is I am using a multi-page form and the date of birth field I am using is on the second page. When the script executes I am getting a validation error message at the top of the first page, but no field is highlighted below as containing an error.

When I remove the age validation script, I can proceed past page one just fine.

The script otherwise runs successfully. How can I modify the script to only execute on the page that contains the DOB field?

Thank you!

Also the date field is returning the date in mm/dd/YYYY format, instead of YYYY-mm-dd:
$field_id = 7;
$dob = rgpost('input_'.$field_id);

Is there a way to get the date in the YYYY-mm-dd format or do I need to modify the script to read the mm/dd/YYYY format?

Do you mean you're using this code specifically?

Please see this documentation for using gform_validation on multi-page forms:
http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Using_the_Gravity_Forms_%22gform_validation%22_Hook

The form we we re working with previously was a single page form.

Line 19 is where you would modify the date format in this code:

The date format you use in the script should match the date format used in the form.
