Enable Disable Customise and set Date Selection Using JQuery UI Datepicker
In this tutorial, we will desribe how to use jQuery and jQuery UI to enable and disabled custom dates in a date picker. The jQuery UI date picker plugin is frequently used to provide a simple calendar interface for selecting dates and months. The selected date from the calendar is automatically transmitted to the textbox when it is integrated with an input text box.
To begin, we'll use CDN links to add the essential libraries and styles. For any jQuery UI widget to be displayed, we must include both jQuery and jQuery UI, which can be downloaded or utilized via CDN. The jQuery UI theme can also be customized, but in this example, we'll go with the default.
We will cover how to put into effect the following problems and solutions:
- EX 01: Disabled Sunday and Friday
- EX 02: Enabled Monday and Friday
- EX 03: Disabled date from 27th Aug to 30th Aug 2023
- EX 04: Disabled date from 26th Aug to 29th aug 2023 and 2nd September to 5th September
- EX 05: Only Enable date from 26th Aug to 30th aug and 5th September
- EX 06: Enable Month and years dropdown for the previous 100 years and current years
- EX 07: Enable Month and years dropdown for the Next 100 years and current years
- EX 08: Enable Month and years dropdown for the Next 100 years and the previous 100 years
- EX 09: Disabled future date
- EX 10: Disabled Past date
EX 01: Disabled Sunday and Friday
