Question

I want to set default date and min date to my date picker using jquery.

This is my jquery code:

There have an ajax call before setting the date:

After that :

$('#'+categoryedit ).datepicker();
$('#'+categoryedit ).datepicker('setDate', valnew);
$( "#"+categoryedit ).datepicker( 'option', 'minDate', new Date(nextdate) );

Here valnew and nextdate have dates.The mindate worked ,but the default date not setting.

What is the problem in my code?

How can i solve it?

You can set it all when initializing the datepicker:

$('#'+categoryedit ).datepicker({
    setDate: valnew,
    minDate: new Date(nextdate)
});
