free-jqgrid with bootstrap and datepicker issue

I am using demo sample located https://jsfiddle.net/OlegKi/90qmjean/3/
Some reason datepicker is not rendering? also i need to set dateformat to
ISO8601Long:"Y-m-d H:i:s"
But with original date formatter shows selected date as 'Y-3-14 H:i:s'
see the screenshot for details:enter image description here

The problem, which you described in comments above, is the following: you are wonder why the Bootstrap datetimepicker, used in the demo http://jsfiddle.net/OlegKi/duooa5oy/1/, don't close the calendar window after choosing the date.
First of all, I want to stress, that it's the default behavior of the Bootstrap datetime picker. You can try any demo on the page http://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/ to verify that. The reason of the behavior is easy to understand. The datetimepicker allows to change the time and not only the date. The corresponding control contains 4 buttons, which increase/decrease the time via click on the buttons. I marked the buttons on the picture below:
Thus, what you probably want is closing of the datetimepicker if the date (and not the time) is changed. One can implement the requirements by adding the following lines in the demo:
$(el).bind("dp.change", function (e) {
if (e.date.dayOfYear() !== e.oldDate.dayOfYear()) {
$(this).data("DateTimePicker").hide();
}
});
See the modified date http://jsfiddle.net/OlegKi/duooa5oy/7/

It looks like when i updated boostrap-datepicker to latest version, it worked.

Update bootstrap datetime widget to set date

I'm using the Bootstrap datetimepicker in one of our projects. It is a MVC application and it hides the date input by default and shows the bootstrap datetime picker.
The problem we have now is that we're not able to set the date that's set in the date field in the widget. It always loads today.
eg:
I load the form in the browser
I choose a date in the datetime picker
I submit the form with a error
The page is reloaded and the datepicker is set to today, the input value is the correct day and if I navigate to the date in the datepicker is shows up as selected.
I've read through the documentation and tried to use the update function and the setdate function but they didn't do a thing and also didn't return a error.
What I expect it to do is show the selected date if the input is filled.
Now I'm stuck.
edit:
I use a input type="text" on the page with a classname datePickerInline.
On that class there's a css style that hides the input and the following script is present:
/* Document Ready Inits */
$(function () {
initDatePickers();
});
/* Bindings */
function initDatePickers() {
$('.datePickerInline').datetimepicker({
inline: true,
keepOpen: true,
debug: true,
locale: 'nl'
});
}
The input can be prefilled with a date. That works like a charm. If I for example get $('.datePickerInline').val() and try to add setDate in the datetimepicker method it doesn't work. I cant get .update() to work. It errors out all the time.
The stupid thing is that the date is set correctly but the widget wont "scroll" to the correct page...

Bootstrap datepicker's view is not updating when trying to setDate from JavaScript

I am using Bootstrap Datepicker for choosing dates multiple times.
I am trying to do like, if user select date of first datepicker then second datepicker should also get selected automatically.
I got success to do so using...
$('#firstDatePicker').on('changeDate', function(e) {
if (e.date) {
$("#secondDatePicker").datepicker("update", e.date);
console.log(e.date,'changed');
}
});
This is working properly. But problem is, when I am sending data from another page to this page with the help of cookies and after getting data from cookies I am updating both datepicker (firstDatePicker, secondDatePicker) like this...
FIRST TRY
$("#firstDatePicker").data('datepicker').setDate(moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
$("#secondDatePicker").data('datepicker').setDate(moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
SECOND TRY
$("#firstDatePicker").datepicker('setDate',moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
$("#secondDatePicker").datepicker('setDate',moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
THIRD TRY
$("#firstDatePicker").datepicker('update',moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
$("#secondDatePicker").datepicker('update',moment(obj.date_and_time,'DD/MM/YYYY')._d);
above mentioned all try are working and I have also tried to get date from datepicker using $("#firstDatePicker").datepicker('getDate');. I am getting the date also what I have set programmatically but datepicker's view remain same as like nothing happened.
I have used moment.js to convert the date from a JSON object that is 'obj' which is coming in dd-mm-yyyy format so please don't get confused here these all are working even I am able to see the console of $('#firstDatePicker').on('changeDate') but the problem is with view which is not showing the date what is being set.

jQuery datepicker onChangeMonthYear event not firing

I am trying to build an app based on jQuery date picker. Here is my fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Lf6sD/2/. There is a onChangeMonthYear even mentioned in the options, which is supposed to do a simple alert when user changes month or year either through the drop downs or the navigation buttons on the top left and top right.
However, the alert doesn't appear when I am changing month or year either way.
Can anyone tell me what is wrong, and how do I capture the event?

You have onChangeMonthYearType
Change it to this:
onChangeMonthYear: function(year,month,instance) {
alert("h");
}

Use onChangeMonthYear not onChangeMonthYearType,
onChangeMonthYear: function(year,month,instance) {
alert("h");
}

jquery Datepicker: Change position of prev and next buttons

Trying to use datepicker for arabic language. I am able to change all the contents like months and days in arabic so as the datepicker format in RTL.
BUT.
I am not being able to change position of prev and next buttons. Their positions are not changed. Is there anyone out there to help me to do this?
In English:
In Arabic:
Please do comment, if question is not clear. Thank you.

It is very easy, because Jquery already has a feature for RTL.
Do following in the initialization of the datepicker
$( ".selector" ).datepicker({ isRTL: true });
for more information:
http://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#option-isRTL
Follwing is only for above user
note: I think you have to remove what have you done for "datepicker format in RTL"
