jscalendar conflict with CF8 built in calendar chooser

[cyrill]

I stumbled over a conflict the jscalendar portion of the Kalendar has
with the CF8's cfinput datefield type.

I was playing with Kalendar trying to embed it into a cflayout
type="border". Since everything is happening in the index page and the
central layoutarea is populated via ColdFusion.navigate(), I have to
load jscalendar scripts in the index file. The problem occurs when I
create a <cfinput type="datefiled"> in one of the dynamic forms.When I
click on the calendar icon CF8 places near the field, Firebug reports
an error "b has no properties" somewhere in the yahoo calendar code
that CF8 uses. If I uncomment the jscalendar related <script src...>
blocks, everything works fine.

Hi Cyril, thanks for the report.

Bug reports should go into the Code site at http://kalendar.googlecode.com.
I'm also not quite sure what you are experiencing is a bug. I'd have
to see more.

That being said, the current javascript calendar is going to be
replaced with a jQuery date picker in the next release. If it is a bug
it is not likely to get addressed. My recommendation is to completely
remove the jscalendar and use the CF 8 date picker if you need to go
that route. Feel free to post as much info as you need to here so that
anyone else who runs into the issue might be able to better
troubleshoot it. :)
