Get selected date from fullcalendar

Question

I added the calendar to my asp.net mvc 2 application from here .

I want to pick the selected date where I am going to enter the event. How can I get selected date?

Answer 1

$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
    dayClick: function(date, jsEvent, view) {

        alert('Clicked on: ' + date.format());

        alert('Coordinates: ' + jsEvent.pageX + ',' + jsEvent.pageY);

        alert('Current view: ' + view.name);

        // change the day's background color just for fun
        $(this).css('background-color', 'red');

    }
});
