Bootstrap datepicker disabling past dates without current date

Question

I wanted to disable all past date before current date, not with current date. I am trying by bootstrap datepicker library \"bootstrap-datepicker\" and using following code:<

Answer 1

In html

<input class="required form-control" id="d_start_date" name="d_start_date" type="text" value="">

In Js side

<script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
        var dateToday = new Date();
        dateToday.setDate(dateToday.getDate());

        $('#d_start_date').datepicker({
            autoclose: true,
            startDate: dateToday
        })

    });

Answer 2

HTML

<input type="text" name="my_date" value="4/26/2015" class="datepicker">

JS

jQuery(function() {
  var datepicker = $('input.datepicker');

  if (datepicker.length > 0) {
    datepicker.datepicker({
      format: "mm/dd/yyyy",
      startDate: new Date()
    });
  }
});

That will highlight the default date as 4/26/2015 (Apr 26, 2015) in the calendar when opened and disable all the dates before current date.
