JQuery DatePicker ReadOnly

Question

When I make my datepicker read-only, I see that the user cannot type anything into the text box.

$(\"#datepicker\").attr(\'readonly\', \'readonly\');

If you're trying to disable the field (without actually disabling it), try setting the onfocus event to this.blur();. This way, whenever the field gets focus, it automatically loses it.
