To get the datepicker in the create/edit popup , you need to add this lines to the updateDialog or to the addDialog:

afterShowForm: function (formId) {

If you want to format it, you can set format option in datepicker()..like:

afterShowForm: function (formId) { $("#CreationDate").datepicker({
           dateFormat: "dd/M/yy"});}
