Question

I am trying to change the date format in the JQM UI Datepicker.

It’s got an input which display’s the dates as you change them.

I need it to display in dd/mm/yyyy format.

Can anyone help please?

UPDATE:

I’m trying this, but nothing’s changing:

<script>
  //reset type=date inputs to text
  $( document ).bind( "mobileinit", function(){
    $.mobile.page.prototype.options.degradeInputs.date = true;

  });   
</script>

<script language="javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $.datepicker.formatDate('dd/mm/yyyy'); //ADDED HERE
        $("input[type='submit']").click(function(e) {
            e.preventDefault();
        });
    });

</script>

Answer 1

Try this $.datepicker.formatDate('dd/mm/yyyy');
