I have the following Datepicker on my website.
As you can see from the example they have, it only goes as back as 2006 and as forward as 2026 on the year. I need the year to go back a lot further, how would I accomplish this?
Here is my code:
<script>
$(function() {
$("#passenger_dob").datepicker({ changeMonth: true, changeYear: true, dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy" }).val()
});
</script>
Use the yearRange option to set the years you want do display:
$("#passenger_dob").datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy",
yearRange: "-90:+00"
});
the yearRange options can be hard-coded, or, as in my example, a range can be used relative to the current date. The options I've used mean "earliest year displayed is 90 years before current year" and "maximum year displayed is equal to current year".
N.B. As noted in the docs, this merely affects the options displayed in the dropdown by default, it doesn't place any restriction on the dates which the user can actually enter/select.
See http://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#option-yearRange for more details.

I am having trouble understanding how to set the min/max Date of the jquery Datepicker. When I check the docs, i see that the dateformat is expected in new Date(2009, 1 - 1, 26).
What does the 1-1 mean? When I chec w3c schools for js dateformats, I cannot find this one.
So I tried
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
dateFormat: 'yyyy-mm',
minDate: new Date(2001-01),
maxDate: '+15Y'
});
But that leaves me with completely random results... It starts 2006 and ends 2026.
Here is fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/ANF2y/58/
In JavaScript month is calculated from 0 to 11. So while creating a new Date use current month - 1.
1 - 1 equates to 0. So that is a valid month (0 - January).
In your case set minDate as below.
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
minDate: new Date(2001, 0, 1),
maxDate: '+15Y',
dateFormat: 'yyyy-mm'
});
that is because the jquery date picker only shows 15 items at a time, there is no max date set so you can go as far in the future as you want. When it is set to 2001 you see 2006 in the dropdown as it is limited to 15 items. Select 2006 and then you'll see 2001 in the dropdown. Is your question can I show more items in the year dropdown list?
I'm not going to go into minDate or maxDate as that has been well covered. But in addition to that, what you are looking for is yearRange will set the number of visible items in the year dropdown of the jquery date picker.
The documentation states:
The range of years displayed in the year drop-down: either relative to today's year ("-nn:+nn"), relative to the currently selected year ("c-nn:c+nn"), absolute ("nnnn:nnnn"), or combinations of these formats ("nnnn:-nn"). Note that this option only affects what appears in the drop-down.

What plugin are you trying to use. If it is this plugin found in this site. then all you need to do is set the change month and changeyear to true.
$(function() {
$("YOURSELECTOR" ).datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true
});
});
the documentation for the api can be found here.
i am using following code to have datepicker for my form for birthday field,
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#newsletter_birthday" ).datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
yearRange: "1940:2013"
});
});
</script>
Currently its working but is showing year in ascending order i want it to show in descending order, any idea how we do that?
I think this might help you ,
The same they discussed here.
JQuery UI Datepicker, reverse the order of the year in the dropdowns
So when a date is picked it shows up month/day/ format, but I want it to be day/month/year
I tried this but it does not work:
$.datepicker.formatDate( "dd-mm-yy");
Also Would it be possible to have a dropdown of years or an extra over arrow for years as well as months?
I haved look through the documentation and api but am lost as to where to put the code? in the soucre or in the html?
My example is located here Then click the create new user button.
You add this to the settings when initializing a datepicker :
$( ".datepicker" ).datepicker({
changeYear: true, //enabled drop down for year
dateFormat: "dd-mm-yy" //changes the format
});
What changes are needed to show the Years dropdown first and then the months dropdown as second field in jQuery so users can select which year they are born and then select the month in that year. We still want to restrict that calendar cannot display date greater than today.
If user selects 2011, they should not be allowed to select date greater than today.
I was looking for this also and got here but no solution so I get into jquery-ui.custom.min.js and found the an option. Its as below. Hope it helps although its a bit late..
$( "#datepicker_id" ).datepicker({
showOn: "button",
buttonImage: "images/calendar.png",
buttonImageOnly: true,
dateFormat:'mm-dd-yy',
changeYear: true,
changeMonth: true,
showMonthAfterYear: true, //this is what you are looking for
maxDate:0
});
But if you found that already you should have posted it here :)
For this simple use below line:
startView: 2
And add below line to prevent to select date greater than today:
endDate: new Date(),
