However, in my current project, I'm starting to move to Dojo as a general UI framework. The date widget isn't quite as nice as JSCalendar, but it has a number of other widgets that would really be a fantastic addition to the interface, including: * number spinners, can either type or click up/down buttons * auto-complete widget, ala Google suggest, great for looking up accounts/line-items/etc. * Filter table, with automatic sorting browser-side by clicking on a table heading ... these widgets are incredibly easy to set up (though example code is really hard to find) and degrade gracefully back to normal form controls if Javascript is disabled/unavailable. Dojo also has a rich text editor (HTML editor) component, which I haven't tried yet.
