Javascript regex, timer and string-split

I need the following functionality:

-User enters a string in a textbox
-If the string matches an integer, followed by ; and then follwed by a date - then after one second split the string into integer/date and put into two separate textboxes.

Is that hard...?

(you can run index.html directly in your browser)

[index.html]

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>advanced js...</title>
    <style type="text/css">
        p{
            font-style: italic;
            font-size: large;
            
        }
    </style>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function clrAll(){
            document.getElementById("input").value="";
            document.getElementById("number").value="";
            document.getElementById("date").value="";
        }
    </script>
</head>

<body bgcolor="whitesmoke">
    
    Please enter 666;2012-12-31 :<br/>
    <input type="text" id="input" size="40"/>
    
    <p>After one second, split input into these boxes if input matches integer;date ...:</p>
    
    
    Integer goes here:<br/>
    <input type="text" id="number" size="20"/>
    <br /><br />
    Date goes here:<br/>
    <input type="text" id="date" size="20"/>


    <br />
    <button onclick='clrAll()'>Clear</button>

</body>

</html>
