The following example shows how you can override the Date.format and Date.firstDayOfWeek to make the date picker behave as expected in your locale.
Date.firstDayOfWeek = 7;
Date.format = 'mm/dd/yyyy';
$(function()
{
$('.date-pick').datePicker()
});
/* located in demo.css and creates a little calendar icon
* instead of a text link for "Choose date"
*/
a.dp-choose-date {
float: left;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
padding: 0;
margin: 5px 3px 0;
display: block;
text-indent: -2000px;
overflow: hidden;
background: url(calendar.png) no-repeat;
}
a.dp-choose-date.dp-disabled {
background-position: 0 -20px;
cursor: default;
}
/* makes the input field shorter once the date picker code
* has run (to allow space for the calendar icon
*/
input.dp-applied {
width: 140px;
float: left;
}
