public class DateChooser
extends AbleComponent

The DateChooser class can be used to navigate dates and select a specified date.

The class uses the CalendarSelectionModel interface to keep track of the currently selected date. If no calendar is provided on the the constructor, then todays date is used.

The control consists of three sections, the top level navigation section, the calendar section and the selection sections. You can use the relevant accessor to set/get properties that control the apperance of each section.

When the DateChooser is in fast mode, the navigation between months does not result in the DateSelectionModel's displayedDate being updated. The model will be updated if the user selects a date however. Fast mode is the default.
