exclude weekends to be clickable on jQuery datepicker

Question

I would like to prevent the user from clicking on saturdays/sundays (week-ends) when he selects a date using the jQuery UI datepicker widget.

Is there a way to accomplish this? If not, which are the alternatives ways to accomplish this?

Answer 1

$("#datepicker").datepicker({ beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends });
