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?

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

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.

THANK YOU!
