Date Picker Script for Events

This is designed to work with jscalendar-1.0.

Get the above package, add this code to your template.php file (PHPTemplate themes, create the file if it doesn't exist), find the theme function that calls the event widget currently... some assembly needed.

function theme_jscalendar($title, $name, $value, $description, $format) {
	static $load = TRUE;
	
	if ($load) {
	  $jsc_path = drupal_get_path('module', 'jscalendar');
    $jsc_path .= '/jscalendar-1.0';
	  theme_add_style("$jsc_path/calendar-win2k-1.css");
    drupal_set_html_head('<s cript type="text/javascript" src="'. $jsc_path.'/calendar.js"></s cript>');
    drupal_set_html_head('<s cript type="text/javascript" src="'. $jsc_path.'/lang/calendar-en.js"></s cript>');
    drupal_set_html_head('<s cript type="text/javascript" src="'. $jsc_path.'/calendar-setup.js"></s cript>');
  
    $load = FALSE;
  }

  $markup = <<<__JS__
<s cript type="text/javascript">
  Calendar.setup(
    {
      inputField  : 'edit-$name',         // ID of the input field
      ifFormat    : '$format',    // the date format
      trigger     : "button-$name",
      event       : 'click'
    }
  );
</s cript>
__JS__;

  $form['jscalendar'] = array('#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => $title, '#default_value' => $value, '#description' => $description, '#markup' => $markup);
  return $form;
}

Note that this is for 4.7 and that the s cript tags are deliberately broken to fool the suspicious content filter on Drupal.org (isn't there a better way???)
