[Sigia-l] Calendar Control and date/time input

[Heller, David]

Hi gang,

I've been contemplating the use of calendar controls (ya know, a calendar
popsup in month format and allows you to click on a date to fill out a date
form) as I'm creating an app that currently has a requirement for this.

What do people think of the use of this control?

Why isn't there a similar control for time used on the web?
How do people feel when they have the calendar control & a text input field
together?
How do people feel about time inputs as pull down menus vs. text input w/
format hint (& validation)?

Any other comments regarding this subject would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-- dave
