Is there a way to pick date from normal calendar - no popups? So calendar is showing on webform page and user can pick date from it.

Should this be simple? :)

I would play with the included jquery date popup to make it persistent. CSS/javascript should do the job for you.

I looked through date .js files but could not figure out what .js file I should mod and how.
So any furter help with this?

Better not to mod any existing files. My thought was to use some new js/css to force the calendar open on page load and to be positioned above rather than over the field. You might be able to do this with just CSS but I'm not sure. This was just an idea.

I succeeded to edit css to show calendar div, but it does not contain any days etc. How to trigger it to work? Obviously trigger is right now in popup thumb.

In template.php add this 

	drupal_add_library('system','ui.datepicker');
	drupal_add_js('jQuery(document).ready(function(){
	jQuery( "#field_id" ).datepicker({ dateFormat: \'yy-mm-dd\' });
	});', 'inline');

Okey, new problem. It does not pick dates to date field - only highlight chosen date on calendar.
