enable specific dates in datepicker (javascript) - javascript

I have a simple datepicker
<input type="date">
How to enable only some given specific dates on this datepicker
array = [{"date":"06-April-2021"},{"date":"11-April-2021"},{"date":"17-April-2021"}]
There were some solutions with jquery but how to achieve this through javascript

HTML datepicker supports only min/max attribute. You might want to consider other date picker controls such as bootstrap

Disable dates using jQuery Datepicker

I understand that we can disable certain dates (Jquery UI datepicker. Disable array of Dates) by manually specifying each date in array however this seems like a messy solution to a problem.
Is there a simpler method of just providing a start and end date of a period in which dates should be disabled? i.e. 07/07/2020 to 07/08/2020 rather than specifying each date between these?

How can I disable only selected dates on html5 datepicker?

How can I disable few dates (Ex: one week) on a HTML datepicker? I have an input item like this
<input type="date" id="date01" name="date01" max="2019-12-30">
I know I can use min and max values to limit available time period, but in here, I want to block out some days in the middle. can I do that with plain html date picker? if so, how?
You can't: the HTML5 date input only accepts a lower and upper bound to indicate the allowed date range: you cannot specifically select certain dates that are disabled/non-selectable to the user.
There are two solutions to your approach:
Use a combination of client- and server-side validation to let the user know that certain dates are not allowed. This comes at the cost that the user does not know which dates are not allowed when the native date picker is shown in the browser.
Alternatively, you can use a third-party library that allows disabling of specific dates.

From html input="date" to html select drop down format

Is it possible to convert html tag/format <input type="date"> to html tag/format <select><option></option></select> ?
I just wanted to make an input type date to a select drop down format.
For example:
From
Date of Birth - input type date
To
Date of Birth - select drop down option
Actually, I don't want to separate the date of birth values into three. But instead, make a better solution wherein I can transform the input date into a select drop down one.
Anyone who can help me with this one? Thank you.
You may use jQuery plugin to showcase a datepicker like the one below:
https://plugins.jquery.com/datetimepicker/
You can easily find many other jQuery plugins for the same.
If you wish to play around with its UI, you may use jQuery UI built-in themes or write some CSS on your own.
Depending on the browser to open dialog. and also input type=date not support in every browser.

Javascript datepicker popup?

I'm looking for a javascript datepicker like this one : http://code.google.com/p/mobiscroll/
but I want it to respect a maximum date (like the one mentionned in the "max" attribute of my date input on the web page). I don't care if I have to set that as an option but I want it to respect a certain date.
Any idea? Thanks!
Starting from 2.0 mobiscroll has this functionality. It also works with input type="date" min/max values.
jQuery and jQuery UI offer this kind of functionnality, but they do not offer this layout.
In most browsers nowadays you can just use:
<input name="mydate" type="date" max="2012-01-01"/>
It should default to the default date picker of the device you are using.

How to add validation/restrictions for HTML5 date field without jquery/javascript

Is it possible to add validations/restrictions to date element using HTML api,without jquery?
I am currently using jquery datePicker to display calendar,and for adding restrictions using the beforeShow method of the datePicker.
Now i am trying to use the HTML5 calender and want to know how to add restrictions(eg:disable weendends/holidays) to the HTML5 calendar.
Can somebody point me in right direction?
You can use min and max attributes on your date input.
Spec : http://www.w3.org/TR/html-markup/input.date.html
Edit :
Afaik, there is no way to disable specific days using HTML5 date input...
If you want to be cross-browser, use Modernizr and provide a fallback for old browsers (for example jQuery datePicker) : http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/how-to-build-cross-browser-html5-forms/
