Calendar Date Picker

[jpellock]

Create a date picker widget to ease date entry in input fields.

I'd suggest looking at this Pikaday pure .js solution but would be open to alternates. https://github.com/dbushell/Pikaday

This is cool! only minor enhancements to this would be as follows:

• Click on the year or month and it does drop down but its not obvious that it would do that ... we can consider adding “a drop-down” style icon to indicate that these two fields are in fact a drop-down list ….

FYI The standard form/input widget has a date/time option (for browsers that support it): https://github.com/hpcc-systems/Visualization/blob/master/src/form/Input.js#L21

Yeah @GordonSmith , I cannot recall why I was thinking that we'd want another option. We'll look at the browser based version and maybe we'll close this one. I remember now, it was the date formatting. We'll evaluate further.

@GordonSmith is there a date range widget currently.

@jchambers-ln the new from/range support should allow two date inputs (from and to) to work.
