[jquery] Trigger function when date is selected with jQuery UI datepicker

How can I trigger onSelect event when I select a selected date on jQuery UI datepicker?

This question is related to jquery events datepicker

The answer is


$(".datepicker").datepicker().on("changeDate", function(e) {
   console.log("Date changed: ", e.date);
});

Use the following code:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.date-pick').datepicker( {
     onSelect: function(date) {
        alert(date)
     },
    selectWeek: true,
    inline: true,
    startDate: '01/01/2000',
    firstDay: 1,
  });
});

You can adjust the parameters yourself :-)


If you are also interested in the case where the user closes the date selection dialog without selecting a date (in my case choosing no date also has meaning) you can bind to the onClose event:

$('#datePickerElement').datepicker({
         onClose: function (dateText, inst) {
            //you will get here once the user is done "choosing" - in the dateText you will have 
            //the new date or "" if no date has been selected             
      });

If the datepicker is in a row of a grid, try something like

editoptions : {
    dataInit : function (e) {
        $(e).datepicker({
            onSelect : function (ev) {
                // here your code
            }
        });
    }
}
