Question

I am currently using the JQuery datepicker, however it doesn’t appear to enforce the input of only valid dates. Is this possible? For example, it will allow me to manually enter 22/22/22 into the date field. As a last result is it possible to only allow users to enter a date via the picker popup?

Thanks

try this ideas

<input type='text' id='date' readonly='true'>

or

$("#date").keypress(function(event) {event.preventDefault();});

or

$("#date").attr( 'readOnly' , 'true' );
