Question

well I need to get the day, month and

Answer 1

Sometimes a lot of troubles with it. In attribute value of datapicker data is 28-06-2014, but datepicker is show or today or nothing. I decided it in a such way:

I added to the input of datapicker attribute data-value, because if call jQuery(this).val() OR jQuery(this).attr('value') - nothing works. I decided init in cycle each datapicker and take its value from attribute data-value:

 $("form .datepicker").each(function() {
        var time = jQuery(this).data('value');
        time = time.split('-');
        $(this).datepicker('setDate', new Date(time[2], time[1], time[0], 0, 0, 0));
    });

and it is works fine =)
