Passing selected date value of calendar to text filed of parent window

Entering date value of a calendar to a text field ( date picker )

We can ask our visitors to enter a date in any text field. But here it is always better to show one calendar and ask the visitor to select a date from the calendar. This date picker script will help visitors, as they can browse the calendar and decide their date by clicking it. This will also ensure that the date is automatically entered in acceptable format. You can use this in many applications where date is to be entered by the visitors. In a hotel booking form the date of arrival and departure can be entered by using calendars.

You can see demo of this script and download the code here.
