Question

Normal behavior of datepicker is to open when a texbox is clicked and close when a date is selected(clicked). What I need to do is Keep it open from form load and allow user to click repeatedly.I am handling the click event

According to the documentation, you can call it on a div instead of an input and it will stay open and be inline. http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/#inline

You could use it's onSelect event to handle when a date is selected.
