getDate null if you use only slider

[fabiopascolo]

If you set the time with the slider whitout selecting a date (today is selected by default) getDate return null.
For the same reason, even in the demo on the website restrict to start and end dates don't work well if you use only the slider. When you select the second input resets the first.

I have the same problem!

My workaround is adding this piece of code in _updateDateTime method:

            if(dp_inst.lastVal==""){
                dp_inst.currentYear=dp_inst.selectedYear;
                dp_inst.currentMonth=dp_inst.selectedMonth;
                dp_inst.currentDay=dp_inst.selectedDay;
            }

so, this method should be like this:

_updateDateTime: function(dp_inst) {
            dp_inst = this.inst || dp_inst;
            var dt = $.datepicker._daylightSavingAdjust(new Date(dp_inst.selectedYear, dp_inst.selectedMonth, dp_inst.selectedDay)),
                dateFmt = $.datepicker._get(dp_inst, 'dateFormat'),
                formatCfg = $.datepicker._getFormatConfig(dp_inst),
                timeAvailable = dt !== null && this.timeDefined;
            this.formattedDate = $.datepicker.formatDate(dateFmt, (dt === null ? new Date() : dt), formatCfg);
            var formattedDateTime = this.formattedDate;

            // Workaround
            if(dp_inst.lastVal==""){
                dp_inst.currentYear=dp_inst.selectedYear;
                dp_inst.currentMonth=dp_inst.selectedMonth;
                dp_inst.currentDay=dp_inst.selectedDay;
            }

Maybe is not the best solution, but it seems to work fine ;-)

Thanks for posting the fix, sorry it took so long. It is now in the dev branch for testing.
