[jQuery] ui.datepicker upgrade issues
Just a heads up to anyone who needs to do it, upgrading to version 3.3
will break your code. It does not keep the same interfaces, and if you
have done anything non-trival with the plugin then you'll be spending
more time fixing things than you are planning on.
In my case it is the change from $.datepicker.getDateFor() (and
.setDateFor() ) to $(obj).getDatepickerDate() (and
$(obj).setDatepickerDate() ). On the surface I can see why this was
done. But now I'm facing an hour or so of hunting for every instance
where I worked with the plugin - just because I installed the latest
version. (hoping it fixes some of the performance issues I'm seeing
with my code...) Good thing it's billable time, but I'd still rather be
focusing on the code enhancement I started working on, but needed this...
sighs...
