I'm also experiencing problems using the option method on any of the
UI widgets (v 1.6rc6).
Setting an option after initialization using for example
$(#datepicker).datepicker('option', 'dateFormat' , 'mm/dd/yy');
works fine, but trying to retrieve a value using
alert($(#datepicker).datepicker('option', 'dateFormat'));
returns [object Object] as described by pokey.
Any idea?
