Here''s just one example I ran across:
http://www.456bereastreet.com/lab/form_controls/select/
Although it''s nice having those helpers and they work fine in many
cases, I generally prefer to forgo them altogether for public facing
web sites and go with something a lot more flexible. I have used the
Zapatec http://www.zapatec.com/website/main/products/prod1/index.jsp
JavaScript calendar widget with good success.
Unfortunately, getting the resulting date into the database takes a
little bit of work on the controller side, since you don''t get the
automatic parsing of the date into the database as with the
date_select helpers. This provides a much nicer user experience in my
opinion. And if it takes a little bit more work on my part to give my
users a great experience then I call that a win.
