Datepicker class exposes a few events for manipulating the dates.
Fired when the date picker is displayed.
Fired when the date picker is hidden.
Fired when the date is changed.
$('#date-end')
.datepicker()
.on('changeDate', function(ev){
if (ev.date.valueOf() < date-start-display.valueOf()){
....
}
});
The datepicker includes some keyboard navigation:
By themselves, left/right will move backward/forward one day, up/down will move back/forward one week.
With the shift key, up/left will move backward one month, down/right will move forward one month.
With the ctrl key, up/left will move backward one year, down/right will move forward oone year.
Shift+ctrl behaves the same as ctrl -- that is, it does not change both month and year simultaneously, only the year.
The escape key can be used to hide and re-show the datepicker; this is necessary if the user wants to manually edit the value.
When the picker is visible, enter will simply hide it. When the picker is not visible, enter will have normal effects -- submitting the current form, etc.
