I'm working on a Web app where users need to input a date and time. I've used this calendar widget before and it works fine:

However, it hasn't been updated since 2005. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a better one.

The calendar in jQuery UI doesn't handle times. Only dates. I need something that will let the user input both date and time using one control.

I don't think anything exists that does both date and time (at least nothing really good).

The general practice seems to be to use a drop-down list or some variation of one. If you're looking for something more flexible, there is a jQuery plugin for a time picker that imitates the Google Calendar time picker interface which I find very usable.

I am not aware of any single widget which does both date and time well. Any combined widget I've seen is overly complex and confusing.

There are however independent date and time widgets which I use frequently: ClockPick and datePicker. Both are jQuery plugins, work great across browsers, and are very easy to customize.
