No, but it has to start somewhere.

Noticed folks discussing javascript vs non-javascript. It should be
possible to let the browser "choose", same as on my site where you get
a red box with "no javascript" or a green one with "javascript
enabled".  However, I believe if we're talking menus, we can just go
to CSS2 columns and refresh to a different menu on a selection vice
open a javascript submenu.  May be slower, but will work with any CSS2
capable browser.  Now those not CSS2 capable, well ...

Also, for a popup javascript calendar, should be easy enough to call
"popupcalendar" (http://www.mojavelinux.com/projects/popupcalendar/),
a GPL/LGPL javascript calendar.  No sense reinventing the wheel.
