jquery - Display Day of the Week after Date with bootstrap-datepicker -

i'm using bootstrap-datepicker , display actual day of week in text field right after date.

example: 12/01/2014 monday

my datepicker configuration

$(document).ready(function () {              $('#calendar').datepicker({                 format: "mm/dd/yyyy",                 weekstart: 1,                 autoclose: true,                 todayhighlight: true,             });                       }); 

the actual datepicker source here:

https://bootstrap-datepicker.readthedocs.org/

you can try this, add part code:

$('#calendar').change(function () { //your date picker input     var eventdate = $('#calendar').val();     var dateelement = eventdate.split("/");     var dateformat = dateelement[2]+'-'+dateelement[0]+'-'+dateelement[1];     var date = new date(dateformat+'t10:00:00z'); //to avoid timezone issues     var weekday = ["sunday", "monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday", "saturday"];     var day = weekday[date.getday()];     $('#calendar').val($('#calendar').val() + ' ' + day); });  

hope works you.
