The jQuery UI Datepicker is a highly configurable plugin that adds datepicker functionality to your pages.
It is very easy to implement datepicker functionality in an asp.net web form using jquery.
Drag and drop a textbox control
<asp:TextBox ID=”txtDate” runat=”server”>
</asp:TextBox>
In the jQuery ready function, call the datepicker() function
$(‘#txtDate’).datepicker();
For the complete list of options that are available to customize the datepicker widget
Some of the useful options
appendText – The text to display after date field
showOn – When the datepicker should appear. The datepicker can appear when the field receives focus (“focus”), when a button is clicked (“button”), or when either event occurs (“both”)
buttonText – The text to display on the trigger button
