No problem. It's not ideal but I think this might be closer to what you
need:

http://jquery-ui.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/demos/datepicker/icon-trigger.html

You will have to set the input to read-only and make it look like a plain
text region.

An inline datepicker should never be closeable because it's inline and
always present. Even in its disabled state it simply turns semi-opaque
rather than hidden.

The markup combination you want actually goes into more interesting
discussions. From the specifications (
http://wiki.jqueryui.com/DatePickerCalendar) we have:

   - datepicker appears as a popup when attached to a text input field
   - datepicker appears inline when attached to a div or span

Are the above points too restrictive for the majority of use cases out
there? Should we allow the user to specify whether they want a datepicker to
popup or display inline from whatever trigger they wish via an option?
