Description

If the dateFormat option does not have a "day" component, the datepicker does not open to the currently selected month+year.

Example code: http://jsbin.com/itaqi5/2

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click on field and choose a date before/after today's month.

2. Click on field again.

  • Expected: Datepicker shows month+year for current date.
  • What happens: Datepicker shows month+year for today's date.

Tested on Chrome 9.0.597.94 (Ubuntu).

Datepicker is only designed to support picking days. A separate widget would be necessary for properly selecting other values, like weeks or months. For an example of what a month picker should look like see http://imgur.com/TXCuZ
