global options for jQuery UI

Question

I am using jQuery UI 1.8.10. I want to set the UI DatePicker options in a global place for the entire site. For example:

$("#qexpiration").datepicker({ dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy', isRTL: true});

How do I set the defaults for all the DatePickers in my site?

Answer 1

Try this http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Datepicker/setDefaults

$.datepicker.setDefaults({
  dateFormat: 'dd/mm/yy',
  isRTL: true
})
