ARWeb 4.0 annoyance solved....(11k attachment)

I'm liking the new ARWeb quite a bit, but it has a couple of things which
sorta bug me. Amongst them are the fact that there is no calendar widget.
When you expand the date field edit window, you get a text editor. This is
just weird.
So....I did a little modification. This version of the editbox.js file will
detect the field type and provide a date/calendar picker instead of an
editor when a date/time field is opened (and an editor for a regular long
text field).
There are probably some improvements in order (like adding a time picker as
well), and it will require a little modification to handle date formats
other than mm/dd/yyyy (it's commented in the code). Besides that, it should
be a drop-in replacement. Just backup the old editbox.js, and save this one
into the ARWeb directory.
Let me know how it works for you if you use it.
Take care, and Happy Holidays!

Problems are as follows..
--
Netscape 4.76 on win 2k client the numbers do not show up.. if you
forward a month they Flicker.. but you cannot select them either..
--
IE 5.01 on Win 2k .. You can see everything and it works fine.. once..
if you select a value,,, and then decide to change it.. you get the
whole screen repopped in the calendar.. and the system then Hangs..
and I.E does a Dump.

Patrick,
Hey, thanks :)
Appreciate you taking the time to give the widget a look-over. In the
holiday shuffle, I only tested on IE/NT...my bad.
Of course, given Rick's portrayal in his poem, I would have expected that,
if there were a bug, you would find it. :)
I'm working up the fix now, and will post as soon as it's ready. It seems NN
uses a VERY different Date object, so I've isolated at least one of the
problems.
Sorry for the inconvenience folks.

Chris.
Truly I must say "I gravitate to those things (bugs).. Why.. don't know.."
Since I am Created Unique from the creator, then so are my systems..
I guess I am just that... Unique..
=;-P (Winking but hair on fire, and tougue hangin out ! )
--and they said I couldn't do two things at once--
