Hi,
even if similar question has been posted before i cannot get this to work, ive tried several datepicker options on page load but the default date in datepicker settings always overrides.
codeAppery("date").setProperty('setDate',new Date());/code
shows default date in settings, not today.
Any solution to setting the datepicker date always "today" ?
Should have been a tick box in datepicker config menu for this.
Hi Tom, where do you place this code?
Javascript on page load
Hello! Try the following code on page Load event:
codevar dateElement = Appery("date");
dateElement.setProperty("defaultDateValue", $.datepicker.formatDate(dateElement.datepicker_dataPickerOptions.dateFormat, new Date()));/code
Using the test app window on appery, the page load is infinite with this code. Same as i've experienced trying to set datepicker properties earlier.
My temporary fix is using a restservice to set datepicker value to correct date as returned by php backend, not proud of it but its the only way ive got it to work at the moment.
Could you give us your public app link so we can take a look?
...ah... finally got it working, just been having a silly typo all along i suspect. I guess its true that the eyes make you blind!
Your code then works fine Marina 
Thank you
Hi,
I tried the code above (there is one ")" extra) and it made the app not responding to clicks and the date from the datepicker is empty.
I added as you said the code as javascript on page load.
Can you please help?
Thanks
Hi,
Did you change datepicker element name to "date"?
Hi,
I just changed it to "date", forgot before, but still the same behaviour.
