Answer 1

A:

I'm no expert but you're missing <head> tag.

Answer 2

+4 A:

Try:

$(function() {
  $("#date").datepicker();
});

The point being that your check probably fails because the date element doesn't exist yet, particularly since it isn't declared until after the the script that looks for it.

Answer 3

+1 A:

You should put your datepicker related code after the INPUT tag. But, as far as I know, the datepicker component requires that you call it after page load, so your code should become this:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
    $('#date').datepicker();
})
</script>

Now it should work.

Answer 4

A:

It seems that the issue was solved. You had to put it in a $(document).ready() function.

I would just add one more thing about JQuery-UI. If all you need is the datepicker you shouldnt include the whole UI package. Go to the JQuery-UI site and you can customize your download. Mark off the things you need and it will give you a file with only the minimum. This will make you pages load faster.
