Jquery datepicker - only day and month

Question

I want the user to specify their birthday or anniversary date (without year) in a form. For this, I want to use jquery datepicker but it should not show any year option at all. How to do it?

I tried modifying the code in this so question by making changeDay: true and changeYear: false but could not get it to work.

Answer 1

You could do:

$('#date').datepicker( {
        changeMonth: true,
        changeYear: true,
        showButtonPanel: true,
        dateFormat: 'dd MM'
    });

Answer 2

set the css to hide the year and the dateFormat as K6t said

.ui-datepicker-year{
    display:none;
}

Answer 3

You can hide year from a datepicker like this :

$(".daypicker").datepicker( { 
    changeYear: false, 
    dateFormat: 'MM-dd',
}).focus(function () {
    $(".ui-datepicker-year").hide();
});

It wont affect to other datepickers in same page.
