quickly modified from Don Demrow's script at
http://javascript.internet.com/calendars/auto-expire.html

<body>

// Set the expiry date below
var expireDate = "20050731";

var expireYear = expireDate.substring(0,4)
var expireMonth = expireDate.slice(4,-2)
var expireDay = expireDate.slice(6)
var nowDate = new Date();
var day = nowDate.getUTCDate();
var month = nowDate.getUTCMonth();
var month1 = month + 1;
  if (month1 < 10)
  {
  month1 = "0" + month1;
  }
  if (day < 10)
  {
  day = "0" + day;
  }
var year = nowDate.getUTCFullYear();
var GMTdate = year + "" + month1 + "" + day

if (GMTdate > expireDate) {location.href = "index.html"}

</script>

still questionnaireform.html

</body>
