[datepicker] using setDate to set highlighted day

[datepicker] using setDate to set highlighted day

I am declaring my datepicker on my page with the following code:

  1. $('#datepicker').datepicker({
  2.         inline: true,
  3.         dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
  4.         onSelect: function(dateText, inst) { popPicker(dateText); fetchTeamCalls(dateText, currentProspect);  }
            });
And it works fine like that except later in the page I'd like to change the day it is declaring as "today". it defaults to the current day perfectly but I need to change the current day for some overseas users and the following attempts to change it aren't doing anything for me.

$('#datepicker').datepicker( 'setDate' , '2010-03-04' );
$('#datepicker').datepicker( 'setDate' , +1 );


Am hoping someone can see what I am doing wrong and can steer me in the correct direction. Basically, I would like to set the "today" date later in the page load.
