I have a HTML form displayed via PHP. Currently, the user enters the time and date in a textbox but military time may be a bit difficult for some of the users to calculate. I was wondering if there was a display a visual calendar (I've seen a few examples of this in javascript) and a clock that can allow the user to select the date and time instead of just entering in a string that has to be of a proper format. I was trying to avoid a sequence of dropdown boxes, but that's my last resort. A PHP method to do this would be preferred, but I'm beginning to think it will have to be a Javascript deal. Has anyone developed a date/time gui for a web form or know where I can find one?
