I have an html page that contains startdate and enddate as user inputs. I need to let the user choose from a calendar for these inputs, instead of requiring the user to type the dates. Can you suggest anything to help?

By the way, you ought to be more clear and specific in asking your question.

I have an HTML page:
StartDate: yyyy-mm-dd EndDate: yyyy-mm-dd
Currenly these two fields are text fields.
I would like to implement this using calender control where user can select any date from the calender.
You should have edited your question.

Are you trying to find a calendar input (instead of textboxes)? Or, find a picker with format options (YYYY-MM-DD vs. MM/DD/YYYY)?

A:
I think once you start needing this kind of controls, you should move to using javascript libraries.
I recommend you jquery or YUI (you have more: prototype, mootools, etc...)
Concretely for the calendar control, you can use YUI, they have a special js for this. Once you download YUI you can find it here: /yui/build/calendar-min.js and you have a very good example in the path: /yui/examples/calendar.
The method you use to create it is: new YAHOO.widget.Calendar("cal","calendario", { LOCALE_WEEKDAYS:"1char", START_WEEKDAY: 1, mindate:"1/1/2008"});
If you prefer jquery, you will find a calendar control here:

If you're on ASP.NET you could use this one; http://ra-ajax.org/samples/Ajax-Calendar.aspx
I work for Ra-Ajax BTW...
