How do i disable public holidays in a jQuery UI date picker?

Question

I'm making a holiday booking application and obviously you don't need to book off holidays that are already given to you, so I need to know how I can disable, Christmas, for example from the date picker every year without me having to change the code every year. This is my jQuery UI date picker code so far: ``` ```

Accepted Answer

you can exclude the dates like

```
var holidays = ["2014-02-27","2014-02-01"];
$( "#from" ).datepicker({
beforeShowDay: function(date){
    var datestring = jQuery.datepicker.formatDate('yy-mm-dd', date);
    return [ holidays.indexOf(datestring) == -1 ]
}
});
```

you can provide more dates to the holidays array
