Disable datepicker past date & time

Question

I'm using datepicker and i like people not be able to select date and time previous to the present day. I used "minDate: 0" to disable the past date but is there a way to disable past time. For example, if the current time is 5am, i do not want people to select 3 or 4 am of the same day.

This is my code:

var dt;
dt = 
$('#datetimepicker3').datetimepicker({
    inline:true,
    minDate: 0,
    format:'m/d/Y H:i',
    formatDate:'d/m/Y'
});

Answer 1

Declare dateToday variable and use Date() function to set it. Then use that variable to assign to minDate which is parameter of datepicker.

var dateToday = new Date(); 
$(function() {
    $( "#datetimepicker3" ).datepicker({
        numberOfMonths: 3,
        showButtonPanel: true,
        minDate: dateToday
    });
});
