Sooner or later you’re going to have the need for a user to fill in a field with a date. It’s like Murphy’s Law, it’s inevitable. In any event, one nice way of handling the situation is to provide some kind of widget to allow the user to pick the date instead of having them type the date in manually. Typing in dates manually can often be a problem, especially with a global medium like the web; Americans write 3 January 1/3; Europeans write 3/1. Are your dates 03/01/04? 3/1/04? 1/3/04? 1/3/2004? A date picker, when a user clicks on a date from a calendar-like interface can smooth the process.
