jQuery Date Entry uses a "spinner" which has 5 parts as seen in the thumbnail image.

Clicking on the center will fill the input field with the user's local date (or a default value).

The left and right buttons are used to select the sections of the date format (day, month, year).

The up and down arrows control the value shown in the selected field and are used to modify it (UP increases the value, DOWN decreases the value).

Overall jQuery Date Entry makes entering dates inside form fields a lot easier and removes the need of typing anything in the field at all.
