I have been trying to format the datepicker so that the date comes out like this:
Jul 23 15
I have been reading this question jQuery UI DatePicker – Change Date Format
But for some reason it is not working for me. I am still learning jQuery so any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
My code is below:
$('input').datepicker({
onSelect: function(dateText, inst) {
var date = $(this).datepicker('getDate'),
day = date.getDate(),
month = date.getMonth() + 1,
year = date.getFullYear();
var parent_div = $(this).closest(".clickable-text");
console.log(parent_div);
$(".Jquery_day", parent_div).html(day);
$(".Jquery_month", parent_div).html(month);
$(".Jquery_year", parent_div).html(year);
$(parent_div).addClass("is_selected");
}
});
$(window).load(function() {
$('input').datepicker();
$('input').datepicker("setDate", new Date());
var dateFormat = $('input').datepicker({dateFormat: "M-d-y"}).val();
}); <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Source: jquery
