The calendar picker is handled entirely via JS on the client side. This
code
(http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/applications/welcome/static/js/web2py.js#32)
in web2py_ajax.js adds the datepicker to date, datetime, and time fields.
If you don't want it, you can edit that code or simply delete/rename
calendar.js (or anytime.js, depending on which version of web2py you have).
