jQuery Datepickers and Calendars that save lots of Developers's time
Datepickers and calendars are elements you need often to implement in web applications with some advanced features. Starting from zero can be a very hard work, expecially if you don't have big familiarity with Javascript.
This Collections include some of my preferred simple to implement and customize datepickers and calendars, for beginner and professional web developers. I suggest you to try in order to simplify your developing process and save a lot of time reusing code already written. The result is really amazing!
1. jQuery datepicker
This is a default datepicker implemented using jQuery UI which is tied to a standard form input. The calendar opens in a small overlay onFocus and closes automatically onBlur if a date if selected.
You can also use the keyboard to drive the datepicker:
- page up/down - previous/next month
- ctrl+page up/down - previous/next year
- ctrl+home - current month or open when closed
- ctrl+left/right - previous/next day
- ctrl+up/down - previous/next week
- enter - accept the selected date
- ctrl+end - close and erase the date
- escape - close the datepicker without selection
2. jQuery Date Picker plugin
This is an other interesting jquery datepicker with a lot of options and easy to fit in your web application.
- Flat mode - as element in page
- Multiple calendars in the component
- Allows single, multiple or range selection
- Mark dates as special, weekends, special days
- Easy to customize the look by changing CSS
- Localiation for months' and days' names

3. Calendar MooTools
Calendar is a Javascript class that adds accessible and unobtrusive date-pickers to your form elements. This class is a compilation of many date-pickers implemented and completely re-written for Mootools.
This class include all the features that have been most useful while streamlining the class itself to keep it as small as possible. Take a look about how Calendar might enhance the accessibility, usability and validation of form elements on your website.
