Hi,

I want to be able to disable the ability to select past dates with the datepicker, I believe it has something to do with 'min date' but cant work out how to so it...

here is my code so far:

1. <script>
       $(function() {
           var dates = $( "#from, #to" ).datepicker({
               dateFormat: 'dd MM yy',                                     
               defaultDate: "+0d",
               changeMonth: false,
               numberOfMonths: 1,
               showOn: 'both',
               buttonImage: 'contact/calendar/calendar.gif',
               buttonImageOnly: true,
               onSelect: function( selectedDate ) {
                   var option = this.id == "from" ? "minDate" : "maxDate",
                       instance = $( this ).data( "datepicker" );
                       date = $.datepicker.parseDate(
                           instance.settings.dateFormat ||
                           $.datepicker._defaults.dateFormat,
                           selectedDate, instance.settings );
                   dates.not( this ).datepicker( "option", option, date );
               }
           });
       });
       </script>
