Disable previous dates in datepicker

Question

I tried to use datepicker for a form on my website from a following link. I want to disable previous dates and only allow user to select date from current date and onward. http://eternicode.github.io/bootstrap-datepicker/?markup=input&format=&weekStart=&startDate=&endDate=&startView=0&minViewMode=0&todayBtn=false&clearBtn=false&language=en&orientation=auto&multidate=&multidateSeparator=&keyboardNavigation=on&forceParse=on#sandbox

$(document).ready(function () { 
            $('#sandbox-container input').datepicker({
                format: "dd/mm/yyyy",
                clearBtn: true,
                minDate: 0, 
                maxDate: "+1M +10D",
                daysOfWeekDisabled: "0,6"

            });
});

I add following code minDate: 0,maxDate: "+1M +10D" to achieve this, but its not working. Also I need to add time in this datepicker if it is possible.

Answer 1

Please use $('#sandbox-container') instead of $('#sandbox-container input').

jQuery(document).ready(function() {

  $('#sandbox-container').datepicker({
    format: "dd/mm/yyyy",
    clearBtn: true,
    minDate: 0,
    maxDate: "+1M +10D",
    daysOfWeekDisabled: "0,6"

  });
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.3/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>


Date :
<input id="sandbox-container" type="text">

Try this is disable past dates

var dateToday = new Date();
$(document).ready(function () { 
            $('#sandbox-container input').datepicker({
                format: "dd/mm/yyyy",
                clearBtn: true,
                 minDate: dateToday,                
                daysOfWeekDisabled: "0,6"

            });
});

Answer 3

Simplest solution is to set today's date as minDate in datepicker as below. This will block all the dates prior to today's date.

$('#sandbox-container input')
  .datepicker({
     format: "dd/mm/yyyy",
     minDate: new Date(),                
   });

Above is sample code just to illustrate how can you set minDate

   });
