I just downloaded a file called popupcalendar.zip from the parent company of this forum. So I'm hoping that one of the administrators catches this post. I tried to e-mail but the address must have been an old one. So here is the mail message that I tried to send.
Dear Sir or Madam,
Words can not begin to describe the level of indebtedness that I am in to you. It didn't quite reach the level of giving you my first born child, but it was extremely close. So why this extreme level of gratitude? Well let me explain.
About 3 weeks ago I was asked if I would maintain a training database for my company. Note that they said maintain. At that time on a scale of 1 to 10 my level of experience with HTML, ASP, and JavaScript was 0, 0, and 0 respectively. Well after getting the project handed to me I went through the code as it was written by the original author. In doing so I learned what ASP was/is and rewrote much of it as the project was an HTML website that utilized the ASP essentially to only access the database.
To make a long story short . . . I've been getting harassed by mgt about why the project isn't online. I'm constantly telling them that hey I was only supposed to maintain it not essentially create it from scratch. ( In one ear and out the other ) However, one item that was asked for as a date picker versus the user having to type the dates in manually. I agreed that having users enter information is prone to mistakes so it should have some sort of date selector. So on to Google.
I found your popcalendar and after hot dam if I wasn't able to get it to work. I wish I could say that I learned a lot but that'll take some time. I'll need to digest what it is that your scripts do. But suffice to say that with your help I did it.
I just wanted to thank you so very much, and if you ever get to Colorado Springs, CO e-mail me and I'll buy you allot of beer!
