Question

I have used jquery datepicker in my .aspx page. The control is working fine. What i need is to disable the control if the textbox on which it is linked is disabled. For ex. I am showing datepicker on textbox “txtDateOfAssignment”. If the Enabled property of this textbox is false then datepicker should not be active on that.

Anybody have an idea?

Thanks in advance.

if you look at the documentation you’ll notice that there is a “disable” method, so you can do :

$('id-of-your-textbox').datepicker('disable');

Ok, finally you’re not using jquery-UI but jquery-datepicker, so it should be more something like as referred to the documentation here

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('.date-picker').dpSetDisabled(true);
});

If you want to disable only 1 datepicker dont use the class selector “.date-picker” but the id of the datepicker you want to disable.
