Free-Form Date Picker - like RTM

Question

I'm looking for a way to have a textbox that allows users to type in a date in any format and turns around and formats that date in a 'mm/dd/yyyy' format. So the user could type in "Today" and it would turn the date as 02/24/2009 or they could type in Wednesday Feb 24 and formatting would automatically pick up. Remember the Milk does this (but I believe server side). This is asp.net so I could do via ajax web service call but I would prefer to do this via Javascript. I'm looking for a general technique or existing library to help with this.
