Description
I'm working in a scenario in which I need to have the button element defined in the original HTML and ''not'' have it create it via JavaScript.
I altered the source, adding a parameter buttonElement to specify the element to be used. My change was about 8 lines different but didn't handle passing by ID (just the DOM element).
In my case it would preclude me from using the component and require finding an alternative solution; hence the almost-oxymoron 'critical enhancement'.
You can open have your button open the datepicker attached to an input with the following:
$(input).datepicker('show');
