Rails DatePicker
http://projects.exactlyoneturtle.com/date_picker/index.html
A simple, clean and tidy JavaScript calendar, purpose built for use with Rails in selecting dates for ActiveRecord.
Works with all modern browsers, and has a number of options without being overly complex.
Known to work with the Prototype libraries and play nice with the ANSI date format ActiveRecord expects, and also includes a module to help ActionView generate the minimal HTML markup required.
http://blog.behindlogic.com/2007/06/rails-smarter-forms-plugin.html integrates DatePicker (with plenty of enhancements) with Rails’ own FormBuilder so you can create date-picker fields exactly the same way as you would create any other form field.
Calendar Date Select
A fully integrated, well polished Rails DatePicker plugin. Full integrationg with the rails “FormBuilders”. Capable of selecting a Date and a DateTime. Lightweight. Depends on prototype.js
See project home page for features, demo, docs, installation instructions, etc.
