>>>Hi,
>>>What would you recommend to use for as a calendar lookup in ASP.NET application? Is there anything built in ASP.NET natively? or does jQuery-UI.js has something like this? I would prefer not to use anything commercial but rather what is already available in the project.

>I already tried the jQuery Datepicker but need to learn how to style it. The demo looks very good but they (whoever created the demo) styled it really nice without offerring the .css of it. But I found one site where they "teach" how to style jQuey Datepicker.

Was it this one? :http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/jquery-ui-datepicker
If so there's a download of the css on that page.

> I probably won't even try ASP.NET calendar control. I prefer to learn as much as possible - in web design - without MS "tools."
>As I have been dealing with the issue of Ajax (another thread) I see how MS tends to overcomplicate things, have buggy tools, etc. You can tell I am not a big fan of MS these days (this to put it mildly).

The Calendar control is OK and simple to add - but I find the Jquery offering more flexible.

>Thank you for your help.
