Question

I’m using this datetime picker and want to set the minDate to today at 8 am.

The timepicker has the attribute minDate that can take input like new Date(2012, 05, 15, 8, 00). I would like it be able to do something like new Date(getFullYear(), getMonth(), getDate(), 8, 00), but that doesn’t seem to work.

Is there any way to do that?

Answer 1

You can create a Date object (MDN) with the current date/time and then adjust it to your needs like the following, before passing it on to the datetime picker.

var minToday = new Date();
minToday.setHours( 8 );
minToday.setMinutes( 0 );

Note that this uses the local time of the user, which may be different from your server time!
