One of the things about writing a book/story is that you can have 
flashbacks, or can be telling a parallel story, unfolding in one thread the 
past so you can see how it influences the 'present' thread.

So on my book writing tiddlywiki I have a field for each chapter that is 
the 'date' -- the timeline.
In the ChapterViewTemplate

<b>Date: </b><span macro='view dateline date'></span>

But in the ChapterEditTemplate I have a problem.
Using 

<b>Date: </b><span macro='edit dateline '></span>

I just get this field with a big number.
Its not a date.

Yes there are calendar popup plugins.
I've tried them and they are awkward.  I can't easily enter a date a few 
centuries away, past or future.
You only move one month at a time... more like that

I'd really like to be able to enter dates as the three fields, day month 
year, and have that converted when I press 'done' but I'm not figuring this 
out.  Its going to take JavaScript programming, isn't it?  I haven't found 
any example to cut-and-paste.  A popup/select for "month" might be asking 
too much.

Is there such out there?  Could someone point me in the right direction, 
please.
My google-fu seems to have run out.

This is "Classic".
