Datepicker: option for full month names in month select

[svermillion]

An option to display the full month name in the select list (when changeMonth=true), which is more user friendly in some scenarios, such as wider datepickers.

Thanks, but we're not accepting any new features. Datepicker is being rewritten and the size of the API will be reduced.

... and one year later, we still can't show the months full names. This 4-line patch would have been a real good one.

Wow... I also think this would be good.

You can work it around by extending the whole datepicker.

$.extend($.datepicker, {
    __base__generateMonthYearHeader: $.datepicker._generateMonthYearHeader,
    _generateMonthYearHeader: function (inst, drawMonth, drawYear, minDate, maxDate, secondary, monthNames, monthNamesShort) {
        return $.datepicker.__base__generateMonthYearHeader(inst, drawMonth, drawYear, minDate, maxDate, secondary, monthNames, monthNames);
    }
});
