hi all...
I am using JQuery date picker like:

JavaScript

$('#<%= txtdate.ClientID %>').datepicker();
$('#<%= txtdate.ClientID %>').datepicker('option',{dateFormat:'dd/mm/yy'});

On button click I am trying to fetch date from database and insert into text box
like this: and am sure date coming to data reader

C#

txtdate.Text = dr["date"].ToString();

But it won't show the date in the text box. Can any one help me please?

Thanks in advance

Have you run the site under the debugger to ensure that the data isn't null?

dear sandeep08mca,
it is returning dd/mm/yyyy formate only no need to cast it again it won't work out because its a string not a date
