jQuery datepicker, onSelect won't work

I can't get onSelect working on my jQuery datepicker.

Heres my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
    $('.date-pick').datePicker( {
        onSelect: function(date) {
            alert(date)
        },
        selectWeek: true,
        inline: true,
        startDate: '01/01/2000',
        firstDay: 1,
    });
});
</script>

It's like it doesn't register the onSelect function. What am I doing wrong?

$('.date-picker').datepicker({
                    autoclose : true,
                    todayHighlight : true,
                    clearBtn: true,
                    format: 'yyyy-mm-dd', 
                    onSelect: function(value, date) { 
                         alert(123);
                    },
                    todayBtn: "linked",
                    startView: 0, maxViewMode: 0,minViewMode:0

                    }).on('changeDate',function(ev){
                    //this is right events ，trust me
                    }
});

datePicker's onSelect equivalent is the dateSelected event.

$(function() {
    $('.date-pick').datePicker( {
        selectWeek: true,
        inline: true,
        startDate: '01/01/2000',
        firstDay: 1,
    }).bind('dateSelected', function(e, selectedDate, $td) {
        alert(selectedDate);
    });
});

This page has a good example showing the dateSelected event and other events being bound.

The function datepicker is case sensitive and all lowercase. The following however works fine for me:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.date-pick').datepicker( {
    onSelect: function(date) {
        alert(date);
    },
    selectWeek: true,
    inline: true,
    startDate: '01/01/2000',
    firstDay: 1
  });
});

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function() {
        $("#datepicker").datepicker({ 
              onSelect: function(value, date) { 
                 window.location = 'day.jsp' ; 
              } 
        });
    });
 </script>

<div id="datepicker"></div>

I think you can try this .It works fine .

The best solution is to set the datepicker defaults

folows the code that I used

$.datepicker.setDefaults({
    onSelect: function () {
        $(this).focus();
        $(this).nextAll('input, button, textarea, a').filter(':first').focus();
    }
});

I have downloaded the datepicker from jqueryui.com/download and I got 1.7.2 version but still onSelect function didn't work. Here is what i had - 

$("#datepicker").datepicker();

$("#datepicker").datepicker({ 
      onSelect: function(value, date) { 
         alert('The chosen date is ' + value); 
      } 
});

I found the solution in this page -- problem with jquery datepicker onselect . Removed the $("#datepicker").datepicker(); once and it worked.

No comma after the last property.

Semicolon after alert(date);

Case on datepicker (not datePicker)

Check your other uppercase / lowercase for the properties.

$(function() {
    $('.date-pick').datepicker( {
        onSelect: function(date) {
            alert(date);
        },
        selectWeek: true,
        inline: true,
        startDate: '01/01/2000',
        firstDay: 1
    });
});

It should be "datepicker", not "datePicker" if you are using the jQuery UI DatePicker plugin. Perhaps, you have a different but similar plugin that doesn't support the select handler.
