rated 0 times [ 100] [ 1] / answers: 1 / hits: 27414 / 11 Years ago, fri, january 31, 2014, 12:00:00

I have Bootstrap datepicker with default format mm/dd/yyyy, and I have select where I can change
format from mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy and reverse.

On select change I want to my datepicker change format.

I tried

find('#options-date_format').on('change', function(){

    $("#picker").datepicker({format: formatDate})

});

but It's not working, and I can't find way of doing this.
Also tried to remove / destroy datepicker but I got javascript error.

Ok I resolve this extending bootstra-datepicker.js

setFormat: function(format) {

    this.format = DPGlobal.parseFormat(format);

}

And call that function

find('#options-date_format').on('change', function(){

    $(#picker).datepicker('setFormat', newFormat);

});
