I am trying out the jquery datepicker but can’t get it to work. I know I must be missing something simple. Here is my code:

HTML :

<div class="demo">
    <p>Date: <input type="text" id="datepicker"></p>
</div><!-- End demo -->

<div class="demo-description" style="display: none; ">
    <p>The datepicker is tied to a standard form input field.  Focus on the input (click, or use the tab key) to open an interactive calendar in a sma    ll overlay.  Choose a date, click elsewhere on the page (blur the input), or hit the Esc key to close. If a date is chosen, feedback is shown as t    he input's value.</p>
</div><!-- End demo-description -->

JS :

 $(function() {
     $( "#datepicker" ).datepicker();
 });

This renders a text field, but no jquery calendar. Thank you.

    Date picker is in jQuery UI libs.. You need to include that for date picker to work.

    Edit: You need to include this,

    https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/jquery-ui.min.js

    Add this in your html,

    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/jquery-ui.min.js" ></script>
