jQuery UI DatePicker Set default date as Current Date for TextBox in ASP.Net

Dear @ashishk,

The problem is with your system date format. the above example gives dateformat based on your system date format. if you want your required date format then use System.Globalization. please change below query with below example 

using System.Globalization;  // add this namespace for CultureInfo.InvariantCulture


public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        txtDate.Text = DateTime.Today.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
    }

    protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string dt = Request.Form[txtDate.UniqueID];
    }
}
