Yeah, originally it was done because the tapestry datepicker did some _javascript_ variable assignments that aren't compatible with a more dynamic page context..

This has more to do with closures and how _javascript_ treats things differently depending on the context. Like the use of the word "this" has many meanings. In one place it could mean the window, in another it could reference a specific dom node, or the window's document dom. It's crazy! ;)

I agree that <= beta-1 the DatePicker wasn't exactly great, but the picker checked into cvs head for beta-2 is pretty damn good. Unless you guys have found a problem with it? (besides having to include css files ...that's a real pain)

I tried using the tapestry one, but the main problem is that if you refresh
a div via tacos that contains a tapestry datepicker component the _javascript_
is never loaded for the component.

Subject: [Tacos-devel] speaking of the datepicker


I have a few questions as i'm looking through it .

I have always thought that the usability on  the tacos datepicker is
quite bad . I would like to fix this in a way or another . I am
looking through the code and I see it's not even dojo or home made ,
but imported from somewhere else ...

in that case , my first question , before any other would be : why not
use the tapestry one ?
