title: How to change placeholder of datepicker class
body: <p>how do you change the default placeholder of the datepicker class in bootstrap?</p>
  
  <p>This is my current code and has the place holder of yyyy-mm-dd but I want to change it to something different like "Enter date"</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.TextBoxFor(m=&gt; m.test, "{0:yy-MM-dd}", new { @class = "datepicker form-control" })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.TextBoxFor(m=&gt; m.test, "{0:yy-MM-dd}", new { @class = "datepicker form-control", placeholder = "Enter text" })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but that does not do the trick.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
