set the max date on kendo date picker from client side

Question

I have this:

var today = new Date();

Updating the kendo datepicker:

$('#datepicker').kendoDatePicker({
    max: today.setDate(today.getDate()+30);
});

In the debugger the max value is 1404408808080 but in today variable the date is right one 2014-07-03T17:3. Want to set the max date for kendodatepicker 30 days from the current date.

Answer 1

You have to use the setOptions() method to change that:

var datepicker = $("#datepicker").data("kendoDatePicker");

datepicker.setOptions({
    max: new Date(today.setDate(today.getDate()+30))
});

Or if you want just do this in the initialization:

$("#datepicker").kendoDatePicker({
    max: new Date(today.setDate(today.getDate()+30))
});
