Thank you, Jon. Yea, that seems to be a pretty popular one. That's the
one I am currently using in my project. However, my goal is to get rid
of it for a couple reasons.

1). It's not intuitive to choose months/years from the drop down (not
obvious to a user that they should hold the mouse down to get those
popups to appear).

2). It's not object-oriented. My design goals include making every
widget encapsulated via the prototype.js Class mechanism. This is really
paramount to the long term sustainability of my project, and the dynarch
calendar library is the last big "plop-in" js library I have to get rid
of. A prototype based OO calendar would also inherently support a rich
event model to alert any number of other widgets of different user
interactions, etc...

But, again, thanks for the reply. It's always good to know the people on
this list are willing to help :-).

Ryan,

you might want to help me out on the MyFaces calendar.

http://www.irian.at/myfaces/calendar.jsf

I took the javascript code of -

http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/scripts/js_calendar/js_calendar.html
(well, or another source, but it is the same, I know that one ;)

and converted it to something prototype-based. But - I haven't
finished in the sense of it is all object-oriented, but still not very
nice code on the inside. If you're interested, contact me.

regards,

Martin
