title: How to set the default month and the year of jquery monthpicker
body: <p>I need to set the default month and the year for the jquery monthpicker when page loads.</p>
  
  <p>Below is my code. Currently monthpicker text box is empty when loads.</p>
  
  <pre><code>  $(document).ready(function() {      
      $('#monthPicker').datepicker( {
  changeMonth: true,
  changeYear: true,
  showButtonPanel: true,
  showButtonPanel: true,
  dateFormat: 'MM yy',
  onClose: function(dateText, inst) { 
      var month = $("#ui-datepicker-div .ui-datepicker-month :selected").val();
      var year = $("#ui-datepicker-div .ui-datepicker-year :selected").val();
  
      $(this).datepicker('setDate', new Date(year, month, 1));
  }
  });
  }); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And also, I need to remove the dates from the calendar, I mean I just only need to display the year and month selection options.</p>
