title: JQuery Datepicker, can't trigger onSelect event manually!
body: <p>I am using jquery's datepicker where a list of items is populated from an ajax call whenever a date is picked from an inline datepicker object. The script works perfect except that I can't trigger an onSelect event to populate my initial list of items.</p>
  
  <p>I could get around this problem by just populating the list initially using php but I would really like to avoid this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>    $(document).ready(function(){
  
          //create date pickers
      $("#date_calendar").datepicker(
    { 
          changeMonth: true,
          changeYear: true,
          dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
          defaultDate: $.datepicker.parseDate("y-m-d", $('#date').val()),
          onSelect: function(dateText, inst)
              {
                  alert('onSelect triggered! Yay!');
                  $('#date').val($.datepicker.formatDate("yy-mm-dd", $('#date_calendar').datepicker('getDate')));
  
                  // Ajax for populating days when selected
                  $.post(
                      "server_requests/show_day.php",
                          {
                          date: $('#date').val(),
                          user_id: $('#user_id').val()
                          },
                      function(data)
                      {
                          //return function
                          $('#my_day_tasks').html(data.resultTable);
                      },
                      "json"
                  );
              }
      }).disableSelection();
  
      $("#date_calendar").trigger('onSelect');
  
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated :)</p>
