To set the range to start from today's date and prevent user from going to previous months, you need to change the gBegin option in the "theme-name".js file to be as following:

Hello:

I want to start 2 days before today, my code run ok in all days of the month but when in days 29, 30 and 31 not run.

Here is my code.

var _dBegin=new Date(gToday[0],gToday[1]-1,gToday[2]+2);
var gBegin=[_dBegin.getFullYear(),_dBegin.getMonth()+1,_dBegin.getDate()];

var gEnd=[2009,12,31];

Where is the problem?, I put an alert and the date is correct but the start calendary is placed in the final date (gEnd).

Thanks for all.

Actually your code seems to set the range begin 2 days after today instead of before. To set it 2 days before today, you should use the following code instead:

sorry about my english, I want to say 2 days after (sorry).

In the last days of each month the code not run ok and in the start calendary presents the month of the final date (gEnd).

what happens?

Thank you for providing us the link. And here is a detailed explaination and solution. Please be patient while reading...

The problem is very specific when setting today+2 days as the start date based on the DateRange demo, which will result a starting date in the next month when today is at the end of previous month. e.g. if today is Nov 29 the starting date would have to be on Dec 1 - which would effectively disable all dates in the current month. However, the calendar would popup by default showing current month, so this would generate an unwelcomed calendar view with all days disabled unless the user move to the next month.

To avoid the above problem, there is a parameter called SafeMonth (detailed in hello world tutorial) that will take the calendar to the specified month if today's date is out of range.

The default implementation in the PopCalendarXP DateRange Demo uses the month of range end as the safe-month, which in your case caused the problem. To work around, you just need to change the parameter passed into the fPopCalendar() function to use gBegin as SafeMonth instead of gEnd, as following:
