Yup, it's an integer, and that's my reasoning for wanting to modify the
interface that the DateChooser shows to the user. I would want to do something
along the lines of this
http://srinivasannam.wordpress.com/2008/07/01/new-flex-calendar-controls/ but
in the calendar pop up (not quite as complex), dropping in a textinput to allow
the user to enter a number of days, which would select the date X days from the
selectedDate in the DateChooser (dategrid)

There are too things that crop to mind. First, if you just want the
user to select the number of days, isn't that an integer in a
TextInput? I'm assuming that is the wrong path, so...
You might be describing allowMultipleSelection which can allow the user
to select multiple days in the DateChooser. Additionally, check out
allowDisjointSelection, selectedRange, and selectedRanges

We have a limited amount of space in our app, so the DateChooser
calendar pop up is probably our best option right now. We want to
allow the user to select number of days and change the date based
upon the number of days the user selected. I was trying to figure out
a way to include this functionality inside the calendar that pops up
in order to save a little more real estate on the page (and make my
own component for it).

What type of modifications do you want?
There is some localization customization of the DateChooser, with
monthNames, monthSymbol, and I think a few other properties. I think
there is a dayNames property too.
I've been building a Calendar component as part of ongoing The Flex
Show video series (
http://www.theflexshow.com/blog/index.cfm/Fifteen-Minutes-With-Flex
http://www.theflexshow.com/blog/index.cfm/Fifteen-Minutes-With-Flex )
and a more advanced version just went up for prerelease sale at
Flextras.com . If you think something like that would suit your needs,
I'd love to learn more and possibly get you on our beta program and
discuss your needs further.

Just wondering if anyone knows a way to modify the DateChooser

reference to any kind of factory or renderer that would accept a new
calendar. If not, anyone have any other potential solutions?
Thanks.
