Looking for recommendations on date pickers which use prototype. I found this one: http://www.eulerian.com/en/opensource/datepicker-prototype-scriptaculous But it has some positioning issues in Safari.

I wrote one not too long ago that uses prototype. It''s not too advanced
but makes for a decent date-chooser. It has an onSelect() hook that
fires when a day is clicked, and allows you to cycle through
next/previous months.
If you want to check it out you can test it here (just click the little
calendar icon).
http://www.realtown.com/sandbox/calendar
I know it can be improved but this was just a quick thing I put together
for one of our admins.
Here''s the JS script, written as a plugin (only requirement is
prototype).
http://www.realtown.com/js/realtown/plugins/calendar.js
When used, the plugin automatically loads this stylesheet:
http://www.realtown.com/css/calendar.css
Here''s the javascript snippet that is used to add the calendar icon
next
to the date field:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var img = $(document.createElement(''img''));
img.setAttribute(''src'',
''/images/icons/calendar.png'');
img.setAttribute(''id'', ''calendar-button'');
img.setAttribute(''class'', ''icon'');
img.setAttribute(''alt'', ''Date Selector'');
img.style.cursor = ''pointer'';
$(''mdy'').appendChild(img);
img.observe(''click'', function(event) {
date = new Date();
date.setMonth($(''month'').value - 1);
date.setDate($(''day'').value);
date.setYear($(''year'').value);
var calendar = new RT.calendar({
selected: date,
onSelect: function(date)
{
$(''month'').value = date.getMonth() + 1;
$(''day'').value = date.getDate();
$(''year'').value = date.getFullYear();
}
});
var container = calendar.getCalendar();
var position = $(''calendar-button'').cumulativeOffset();
container.style.top = position.top + ''px'';
container.style.left = position.left + ''px'';
});
//-->
</script>

haven''t personally used any of these, but http://scripteka.com/ is a good place to start for prototype/scriptaculous extensions.

Yea, you should be able to make it work with a single input field. It
accepts and returns native Date() objects, so it''s just a matter of
converting that to something your form can handle in a single field.
It currently accepts on an observer by defining onSelect() on
construction. Unfortunately I don''t have any documentation for it but
it
if you have any questions just shoot me an email.
Basic usage:
var date = new Date();
var handleSelect = function(date)
{
// Do something with date
}
var calendar = new RT.calendar(
{
selected: date,
onSelect: handleSelect
});
