I'm at my wits end trying to force this jQuery datepicker control to understand specific date formats. What the hell is going on here?

View

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.StartDate, {0:dd/MM/yyyy}, new { @class = datefield })

Javascript

$(function () {

    $(.datefield).datepicker({

        dateFormat: 'dd/MM/yyyy',

        showOn: button

    });

});

On page load

datepicker clicked, so far so good

datepicker

date selected... what?

date

According to the documentation:

dd - day of month (two digit)

MM - month name long

yy - year (four digit)

So dd/MM/yyyy should produce that result. (The day, the long month name, and the 4-digit year twice.) To match your initially loaded format, you'd want this:

dd/mm/yy
