[Dateinput] initial date via value attribute not picking up

[thedotedge]

The HTML code for the input is:

The JS is:

$().ready(function() {
    $('input[name="birth_date"]').dateinput({
        format: 'dd/mm/yyyy',
        firstDay: 1,
        speed: 'fast',
        selectors: false
    });
});

The expected outcome is that calendar would have 25/11/1981 as current, but it ignores the value attribute and has today as current date: http://grab.by/4kyi

the value is not in a valid format. you should write

value="1981-11-25"

if you want to show a human readable value put the real value to

data-value="1981-11-25"

and the value attribute to ahything you like.

date-value is nice, but not always trivial to use when you use HTML form handling frameworks.
Anyway, I've tried to change the format and it seems to be better, but still the year is 100 off: value="1967-05-30" produces May 2067 in the Dateinput.

this bug is fixed on the latest release here on github and will be published on v1.2.2
