Can't modify options using api syntax

[owlyowl]

Hi I am having issues trying to modify my options after the control has initialised using the api like so:

datePickerElement.datepicker("option", "beforeShowDay", doSomething);

Just wondering if there's a fix/workaround for this?

update the options object you are using to create the datepicker ui-date directive. Dont directly apply your changes to the element/jquery.
