On click of textbox, a calendar opens with current month. I want to open the calendar to specific date.Currently, the calendar opens opens to current month view. Can some one plea

Solution 1:

You can use the defaultDate option to open to a specific date. Let's assume you want it to open to July 1st, 2014:

$('#datepicker').datepicker({ 
     dateFormat: 'mm-dd-yy', 
     beforeShowDay: enableAllTheseDays, 
     defaultDate: new Date(2014, 6, 1)
     onSelect: function (date, inst) { 
        //MyLogic 
     }
});

The format for date is year/month/day. Note: for the month, it is month - 1. So January (1st month) would be 0 and February (2nd month) would be 1.

Alternatively, you can also specify the same date like so:

$('#datepicker').datepicker({ 
     dateFormat: 'mm-dd-yy', 
     beforeShowDay: enableAllTheseDays, 
     defaultDate: new Date('1 July 2014')
     onSelect: function (date, inst) { 
        //MyLogic 
     }
});

You can also define the defaultDate like so:

$('#datepicker').datepicker({ 
     dateFormat: 'mm-dd-yy', 
     beforeShowDay: enableAllTheseDays, 
     defaultDate: new Date('7/1/2014')
     onSelect: function (date, inst) { 
        //MyLogic 
     }
});
