If you need a control just to select a date(without time),you can use asp.net Calendar or CalendarExtender(you can find it within AjaxControlsToolkit which is pretty easy to use).
but if you need a control to select date and time,I would recommend to read this link:
This Control is Stupid , It is till 2020 only what is that ! , I contacted the author to solve this problem , but he didn't reply , this control cannot be used in real systems. It is just for fun (a kid code).
Please mark this post as "Answer" and earn a point.
Do you know why the author didn't respond to you? because you know nothing about his control.
Did you ever tried to use the control? or even run it at your PC?
I don't like people to judge on other people's work without even trying to download the code and use it,calling someone's work that it's stupid and a kid code is not something nice at all,specially from someone who didn't even tried to run the code...show
some respect,appreciation and gratitude for the author or don't use the control at all,no body forced you to use it.
By the way,do you know that you can change the maximum date as you want (like 1-1-2100)? did you even looked at the documentation of the control which says that info load and clear ? the answer is no.
Regading the DHTML calendar,it's a very good control but it's not totally free (if you wanted the new maintained version) but it's nice of you to share the link,it will help others when they step by this thread.
No body said that there is a perfect or a professional control because it depends on what you need and what is the best control you can use/afford to get the job done.
Internet is full of DateTime pickers,speciall those that are built using JQuery,take a quick look at this link for instance:
Don't take it personal my friend,but please next time take a deep look at other people's work,run it and use it,ask the author or anyone else for help in using the control when you face any difficulties or have any questions (Andy faced a difficulty in using
the control but he asked for help here,he didn't said bad things about the control like you did).
Best Regards,
