Date Picker provides a popup calendar in a dynamically populated DIV.  It combines the original date-picker script by Kedar R. Bhave and overlib DHTML popups.  This method is an improvement over using popup windows, because so many people are installing software to suppress the annoying popup windows generated for advertising.  The modifications to use overlib were first done by James O'Connor.  His version of the Date Picker script is accessible via the above link.  This example document uses a version (calendarmws_lang.js) with further modifications by Foteos Macrides, Bodo Hantschmann and Bill McCormick, from the overlibmws distributionThis version includes multi-language support introduced by Bodo.  You must also import the sprintf.js support script to use it.  The examples below also address issues raised by Mike van Leeuwen and discussed by Foteos in the overlibmws support group concerning onchange handling, as well as issues raised by Walter Conti and discussed by Foteos in the overlibmws support group concerning an inactive option.
