JStools does not support the pop up calendar any more; what are other options for making a pop-up calendar?

Description
I installed JS tools and then was reading their documentation and they say on their project page that they don't support the pop up calendar anymore because the library it used is no longer maintained. Is there some other way I can make this into a pop - up calendar field?

You need the Date Popup module which is part of the Date module (http://www.drupal.org/project/date).

I have the date module installed with the date popup module enabled but nothing has changed with scheduler.

Hi Eric,
I'm experiencing a similar issue -- I have the latest date module installed (and popup works for my dated items elsewhere in the site), but the scheduler fields remain plain text fields.
-Currently running 5x-1.17. I'll try upgrading and see if that makes a difference.

With Drupal 6 (the issue was opened for version 6.x-1.6), if Date 2 and Date Popup are installed and activated scheduler will show a jQuery Date Picker widget.
With Drupal 5 you need JSTools installes and activated. If the current version of JSTools does not work, you need to use an older version.

This is still not working for me. I updated my date module even. I have date, date pop up and scheduler installed and it's still not doing it.
Is there something else going on that I need to configure?

Could you please post the list of installed and activated modules and versions. I would like to try it on my test server with your setup.

Is Date Popup enabled? You said it was installed but it's not listed as enabled.
#9
Yes, all the modules I listed above are enabled, including date-pop up.

Sorry, I didn't see it listed. It is a separate check box in the modules list.
#11
It's ok.
My bad. The only Date type modules I don't have installed are date php4 and date tools.

Becky: What PHP version do you use?
#13
php 5

I cannot reproduce the problem. I always get the date popup if scheduler and date popup are both enabled.
I guess we have to dig a little more:
- What does the scheduler section in the node create/edit screen (e.g. node/add/story) look like. Can you make a screenshot?
- Do you have Javascript enabled in your browser? (I know, stupid question, but sometimes its the easy stuff)
- Can you try disable all other modules one by one and always check if the popup works?
