TextBox with Date picker ? Date validation@ jquery

Question

well coming straight to point .

I am having a form with many controls and i am performing some sort of validations on it . I been stuck at one thing i have attached DATE-PICKER to one of My text-boxes and i want to validate Textbox accordingly .

I don't want to provide user to enter ANYTHING in textbox Rather i love to give him Calendar to select from when he clicks inside textbox .

In Html:

<input type="text" id="effectivedate" />

Jquery :

$('#effectivedate').datepicker();

Well any better solution or advice is appreciated .

PS: The thing why i am restricting is just because i don't user to enter some junk values .

Regards

Try to make the taxtbox readonly:

 <input type="text" id="effectivedate" readonly="readonly" />

It will solve your problem.
