I'm not sure if this can be done in the native date picker. You will have to create a separate JQuery calendar UI within a custom form. Someone else may have a better approach.

You can default the date picker to today's date if that would help. 

Hi Robert,

If you only want to highlight Today day, you could add these custom CSS rules to your form :

.ui-datepicker-today  {
     background: #f00 !important;
     border:  #fff !important; 
}  
.ui-datepicker-today  a {
     border:  #fff !important;
     color:  #fff !important;
     font-weight: bold !important;
     background: #f00 !important; 
}
