    copied!<p>I am trying to work on a javascript file as a plugin to the jquery ui datepicker. Basically I have a database table representing reservations for a holiday and I people can pick dates out of the datepicker calendar. I am trying to disable selecting any days that have already been booked in a reservation. Here is my javascript file:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function () { $("#checkin").datepicker({ changeMonth: true, changeYear: true, showOtherMonths: true, selectOtherMonths: true, dateFormat: 'DD, d MM, yy', altField: '#date_in', altFormat: 'yy-mm-dd', beforeShowDay: markInvalidDates, onChangeMonthYear: fetchFreeDays, firstDay: 1 // rows starts on Monday }); $("#checkout").datepicker({ changeMonth: true, changeYear: true, showOtherMonths: true, selectOtherMonths: true, dateFormat: 'DD, d MM, yy', altField: '#date_out', altFormat: 'yy-mm-dd', beforeShowDay: highlightDays, onChangeMonthYear: fetchFreeDays, firstDay: 1 // rows starts on Monday }); </code></pre> <p>});</p> <pre><code>var invalidDays = []; function getReservations() { $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "MullinsBayServices.asmx/GetVerifiedReservations", data: "{}", contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8", dataType: "json", async: "false", success: function(response) { var unvailableDates = response.d; $.each(unvailableDates, function(index, date) { invalidDays.push(date); }); }, failure: function(msg) { $('#output').text(msg); } </code></pre> <p>});</p> <pre><code>function markInvalidDates(date) { getReservations(); dmy = date.getDate() + "-" + (date.getMonth()+1) + "-" + date.getFullYear(); if ($.inArray(dmy, invalidDays) == -1) { return [true, ""]; } else { return [false,"","Unavailable"]; } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>I'm still kind of new to javascript/jquery and can't figure out where I am going wrong here. Assuming that the webservice returns the dates properly serialized in JSON does this right for what I am trying to accomplish?</p>
