UI DatePicker ShowButtonPane Today

UI DatePicker ShowButtonPane Today

I am trying to enable the jquery UI widget datepicker, and the option:

showButtonPanel: true

This works, and I get the button panel, but when clicking the button `Today` which is supposed to put today's date in the datepicker field, nothing happens. Do I need to bind this event manually? Even the jquery datepicker example doesn't do anything.

Here is their demo:

Thanks.
