Disable specific days in jQuery UI datepicker

Question

I want to disable all Mondays in my jQuery calendar and I am using this code :

function DisableMonday(date) {
   alert(date);
   var day = date.getDay();
   if (day == 1) {
      return [false] ; 
   } 
   else {  
       return [true] ;
   }
}

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
   alert('test');
   jQuery('.datepicker').datepicker({                   
       beforeShowDay: DisableMonday()

   }); 
});

my problem seems to be that (date) variable in DisableMonday() function is undefined...how can I solve this problem

You are calling the function without a value, and passing its return value for beforeShowDay. Instead, you should be passing the function itself (i.e. beforeShowDay: DisableMonday) — tew

Have you tried this? Without using a separate method

$(".datepicker").datepicker({
    beforeShowDay: function(date) {
        var day = date.getDay();
        return [(day != 1)];
    }
});

According to jQueryUI's Datepicker API,

enter image description here

Just remove the parenthesis () after your DisableMonday function :

Replace :

jQuery('.datepicker').datepicker({                   
    beforeShowDay: DisableMonday()
});

By :

jQuery('.datepicker').datepicker({                   
    beforeShowDay: DisableMonday
});

And it will work, take a look at Working fiddle.
