   // Parse the entries 
   var startDate = Date.parse(fromDate);

   // Make sure they are valid 
    if (isNaN(startDate)) { 
      alert("The start date provided is not valid, please enter a valid date."); 
      return false; 
   } 
   if (isNaN(endDate)) { 
       alert("The end date provided is not valid, please enter a valid date."); 
       return false; 
   } 
   // Check the date range, 86400000 is the number of milliseconds in one day 
   var difference = (endDate - startDate) / (7776000000); 
   if (difference < 0) { 
       alert("The start date must come before the end date."); 
       return false; 
   } 
   if (difference <= 1) { 
       alert("The range must be at least seven days apart."); 
       return false; 
    } 
   return true;

Here is a rough sketch:

var startDateText = ...
var NINETY_DAYS = 1000 * 3600 * 24 * 90;
var startDate = new Date(startDateText);
var maxEndDate = startDate.getTime() + NINETY_DAYS;
..
var endDateText = ...
var endDate = new Date(endDateText);
if (endDate.getTime() > maxEndDate) {
    Window.alert("Too late");
}
