public class DateSelector extends JPanel implements PropertyChangeListener
A control which allows the user to enter/change a date. The date can be entered into the textfield manually, or it can be selected by popping up a small calendar window which displays dates one month at a time. The calendar popup will always display the current date in a specified color (default red) and the user selected date (if different from the current date) in a different color (default yellow).

Note that this uses a JPopupMenu to display the popup calendar, and there are known clipping bugs with JPopupMenu instances in modal dialogs. Note: Any changes done to this class might also need to be copied to DateTimeSelector and TimeSelector
