.NET (Core and Framework)

Hey guys,
Im fairly new to this so please bear with...
I'm using the tutorial @ http://www.kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/datePicker/v2/demo/index.html
to allow the user to select dates from a calendar

however I can't seem to get it working could someone please advise if I am going about this the wrong way...

'jquery.datePicker.js & datePicker.css' can be downloaded at near the top of the page on...
http://www.kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/datePicker/v2/demo/index.html

1)copy the code in the '•jquery.datePicker.js ' inside my <script> tags in my view
2) copy the datePicker.css code into my css file
3) paste the following into the top of my view page:
<!-- jQuery -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<!-- required plugins -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/date.js"></script>
<!--[if IE]><script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery.bgiframe.js"></script><![endif]-->

<!-- jquery.datePicker.js -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery.datePicker.js"></script>


This does not work...iv tried doing the first demo and replacting the .js data inside my <script>tags wit $(function()
{
    $('.date-pick').datePicker();
});

and then adding the following to .css

/* located in demo.css and creates a little calendar icon
 * instead of a text link for "Choose date"
 */
a.dp-choose-date {
    float: left;
    width: 16px;
    height: 16px;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 5px 3px 0;
    display: block;
    text-indent: -2000px;
    overflow: hidden;
    background: url(calendar.png) no-repeat;
}
a.dp-choose-date.dp-disabled {
    background-position: 0 -20px;
    cursor: default;
}
/* makes the input field shorter once the date picker code
 * has run (to allow space for the calendar icon
 */
input.dp-applied {
    width: 140px;
    float: left;
}


could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
J
