To set current date in control to which jQuery UI datepicker bind, use setDate() method. Pass date object which needs to be set as an argument to setDate() method. If you want to set it to current date then you can pass 'today' as argument.
Define beforeShowDay within datepicker() method. In the function create a new date format according to the defined format (dd-mm-yyyy) in an Array. Check for the date in the Array with $. inArray() method if it is available then return [true, "highlight", tooltip_text]; otherwise return [true] .
To make any past dates disable or for only future dates, you first have to find the instantiation of the datepicker, and set the startDate setting to '+0d'.
You can retrieve the date by using the getDate function:
$("#datepicker").datepicker( 'getDate' ); The value is returned as a JavaScript Date object.
If you want to use this value when the user selects a date, you can use the onSelect event:
$("#datepicker").datepicker({ onSelect: function(dateText, inst) { var dateAsString = dateText; //the first parameter of this function var dateAsObject = $(this).datepicker( 'getDate' ); //the getDate method } }); The first parameter is in this case the selected Date as String. Use parseDate to convert it to a JS Date Object.
See http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Datepicker for the full jQuery UI DatePicker reference.
