[jQuery] datepicker setDate
hi,
how do i correctly choose a default date using the datepicker. i am
using v3.4.3. datepicker/
i can get the date picker working with the default date of today like this
$('#date').datepicker();
where date is an input text field with id date.
but if i do this
$('#date').datepicker("setDate", new Date ( "January 6, 1972" ));
the date picker does not work when i click on the input field, and it
does not pop-up.
what is the correct way of doing this?
I tried to use the debugger;, like Michael Geary said, and I was able
to create a date object new Date ( "January 6, 1972" ), and i was able
to get the input object using $('#div')... but how do i go from here?
