datepicker minimum date?

[andres prenza]

how do i set the date picker to not accept any dates prior to the current date?

Hello! You can set Min Date in builder.

Yeah i saw that but i want it to always be the current date. i do not want to set today's date and then come tomorrow they can still choose today's date . get me
?

Hi Andres,

It would be better not to use Datepicker, you can simply display current date in Label. You can use hidden Datepicker for formatting on Page Show event:
codeAppery("mobilelabel_9").text( $.datepicker.formatDate("DD, d MM, yy", new Date()) );/code

I followed your post

Appery("Datelblinput").text( $.datepicker.formatDate("DD, d MM, yy", new Date()) );

and i run it and the label remains blank.

Are there any errors in console?
Is there a Datepicker on screen?
Do you use Label component?

[andres prenza]

i put a label as you indicated. no datepicker present. i removed it. i should have one present?
but invisible?

[Kateryna Grynko]

Yes, you need an invisible datepicker. It is needed to format output. If you want you can write your own code to format date string as you need.
