jquery datepicker change date format

I'm trying to change date format as the year is changed. The default format is "dd M" but when a date not in the current year is selected then I want to add the year. This all works well adding year to the format. It's when changing back I run into trouble.

$("#id").datepicker({
    ...
    onSelect: function(dateText, inst){
        if (currentYear == currentDate.getFullYear()) {
            $("#id").datepicker("option", "dateFormat", "dd M");
        } else {
            $("#id").datepicker("option", "dateFormat", "dd M yy");
        }
});

It seems as though the datepicker really doesn't like going from having the year included in the format to removing it.

Anyone got any suggestions?

There are some formats which datepicker accepts them only Like

$(".datepicker").datepicker({dateFormat: 'dd-mm-yy'});


$(".datepicker").datepicker({dateFormat: 'd M, y'});

You can check other formats in
