Javascript: Usable Date Field

Posted in » Scripts, Usability - by Ades on June 17th, 2007

This is a nice javascript that makes the date field (any date field) usable. All you need to do is to click inside the form field, and the calendar will pop-up for you to select the date. If you have any forms (e.g online booking, delivery service etc) be sure to use this kind of javascript.

It’s compatible with all major browsers:

  • IE6, IE7
  • Firefox 1.5, Firefox 2.0
  • Safari

Download available at the site. calendar.swazz.org

    Ades,

    thanks for sharing this script. I had been looking for a date field in the past, but found nothing that really suited my needs. I wanted something that looked similar to what expedia has got on its pages. You found what I was looking for!

    Thanks.

    heey, great script. one small problem though. in Internet Explorer, i have a form and i added your calendar in a field. when it pops up, it does this under any select field that i have under it. so it kinda like pops up in the backround of the fields. any other fields stay back, but Select field stay always on top.. any idea why ? can you fix this? thanks.. i would do it myself but i am a newbie in JS :P
