JAWR does this (and more) for a Java/Groovy environment, but I haven't seen anything like it...

Can I force it to attach to the bottom right corner of the place where the datebutton is clicked? I was looking in firebug and it seems to j...

Since there are more and more apps going the web way (like Phonegap, Appcelerator over the mobile and desktop apps development and the ones that I don't know yet), I am wondering what kind of role the web engine (seems the famous engine is webkit) is playing now and in the future?
