Solution 1

what about jQuery approach??

XML

<div id="datepicker"></div>
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.17.custom.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script  type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {
        $("#datepicker").datepicker();
    });
</script>

and do not forget to add css link:

<link href="@Url.Content("~/Content/themes/base/jquery-ui.css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I would recommend to use ASP.Net Ajax calendar control extender. This will sort out your problem. Have a look at http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/AjaxControlToolkitSampleSite/Calendar/Calendar.aspx[^] to know how it works.
