datepicker new date offset of 2 days

Question

Hi, im using datepicker v2. And I have a question. Is there a possibility to let the currentdate have a offset of 2 days. For example; today is it 14may. Can i let the datepicker start today with 16may? And that 14&15 aren't selectable?

Answer 1

This should do it:

var twoDaysTijmeStr = (new Date()).addDays(2).asString;
$('.kalendertje')
    .val(twoDaysTijmeStr)
    .datePicker(
    {
        clickInput: true,
        startDate: twoDaysTijmeStr
    }
);

Let me know if you have any problems with it...

Answer 2

works!

$(function()
{
    $('.date-picker').datePicker({clickInput:true}).val(new Date().addDays(2).asString()).trigger('change');
}

but the today-date is selectable.. i dont want that date to be selectable..

You need to add the days to the date before you cast it to a string. Try changing

$(function()
{
    $('.date-picker').datePicker({clickInput:true}).val(new Date().asString()).addDays(2).trigger('change');
});

to

$(function()
{
    $('.date-picker').datePicker({clickInput:true}).val(new Date().addDays(2).asString()).trigger('change');
});

EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the last requirement that today and tomorrow should not be selectable. Try

$(function()
{
    $('.date-picker').datePicker({clickInput:true, startDate: new Date().addDays(2).asString()}).val(new Date().addDays(2).asString()).trigger('change');
});

Is there a possibility for skipping the weekends with counting? For example; it is Saturday. So it has to be the Tuesday that will be selectable first.
