title: jQuery UI Datepicker - setDate not working
body: <p>I know this question has been asked on SO before, but I can't figure out what I'm missing.  Here is a simple <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/nosfan1019/tbYPf/1/">Fiddle</a>. </p>
  
  <p>The jquery:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var myDate = new Date(1978,2,11) 
  $('#datepicker').datepicker('setDate', myDate);
  </code></pre>
