A: We required calendar control when we want to choose date for particular operation. In this situation jquery datepicker is useful.
Ex:
<html lang = “en”>
<head>
<meta charset = “utf-8”>
<title>jQuery UI Datepicker functionality</title>
<link href = “https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/themes/ui-lightness/jquery-ui.css”
rel = “stylesheet”>
<script src = “https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js”></script>
<script src = “https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/jquery-ui.js”></script>
<!– Javascript –>
<script>
$(function() {
$( “#datepicker-3” ).datepicker({
appendText:”(yy-mm-dd)”,
dateFormat:”yy-mm-dd”,
altField: “#datepicker-4”,
altFormat: “DD, d MM, yy”
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<!– HTML –>
<p>Enter Date: <input type = “text” id = “datepicker-3”></p>
<p>Alternate Date: <input type = “text” id = “datepicker-4”></p>
</body>
</html>
OP:
In this code we have datepicker attributes where we can defined the date format and many more things. The result is above calendar to choose date.
