Jquery mobile datebox today button close on click

Question

I'm using the jquery mobile datebox from here: http://dev.jtsage.com/jQM-DateBox/ and I am setting the calTodayButton to true. The problem I have is when I click the button it just selects today's date which is fine but I also want it to close on click. Any ideas as to the best way to do this?

Answer 1

Try adding an click event to the button which closes the parent container like this

$('.ui-datebox-controls').find('a.ui-btn').on("click",function(){
    $(this).parent().parent('.ui-datebox-container').hide();
 });
