sure, as a default I think there is a calendar pop up attached to all fields
of type date (correct me if I'm wrong)
In our project we have overwritten this behaviour in our
forms-samples-styling.xsl, so that a field of type date, gets translated
into a field which is attached to a javascript event which controls
behaviour of the pop up.
Here is our code from forms-samples-styling.xsl, this is basically a copy of
the code already provided modified to suit us. (Notice our javascript
function is named displayCalendar())

Subject: cforms: wizard lookup (popup)
Hi,
In a cocoon form, how is it possible to mimic the functionality of date
fields/calendar-popups
i.e. have an img next to a field, when clicked, a new window will popup
containing some kind of a wizard (possibly another cocoon app). Uppon
submission (of the wizard) the calculated value should be sent back to the
field
for example, lets say that we have a zip-code field. and we like to offer
a popup wizard where the user will enter the street address
(in text or in an imagemap) and we will come up with the proper zip-code
TIA
