How to set the value of the same field that has been initiated as the date picker instead of the AltField in a form with multiple date picker fields?

For example, you have a form that has 2 fields (field1 and field2) defined as the date picker with the class of .datepicker. when you click on the field1 and the date picker opens you select a date and only the value of field1 updates. and the same goes for the field2.
