Adding “st, nd, rd, th” to jquery datepicker

Question

How can I add st,nd,rd,th to date format.. i.e. November 19th, or December 2nd, etc.

Currently, I have following code

    $( \"#datepicker\" ).datepi         


        

Answer 1

dateFormat doesn't use "s" as a format type, so in the options I usually add -

dateFormat : "DD ds MM, yy",
onSelect: function(dateText, inst) {
    var arrOrd = new Array('0','st','nd','rd','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','st','nd','rd','th','th','th','th','th','th','th','st');
    var day = Number(inst.selectedDay);
    var suffix = arrOrd[day];       
    $(this).val($(this).val().replace(inst.selectedDay+"s",inst.selectedDay+suffix));
}
