The date pop-up calendar does not display when using a form block for any user except user 1 (admin), this is very odd as there are no permissions related to this so that's not the problem. A dropdown box is displayed instead of the pop-up calendar, which lists several random dates for some reason.

I've posted this both in Form Block and Date issue queues as I'm not sure which is the problem.

I should add that this intermittantly doesnt work for admin either, theres something strange going on as if I'm logged in as admin and click into the date field text box the first time, a simple drop down box appears with some dates, if I click a few more times the jQuery pop-up eventually appears, sometimes the drop down box is still visible behind it, sometimes not.

Logged in as any other role and just the simple drop down box appears, the jQuery pop-up doesnt appear no matter how many times I click in the box.

I've tested over and over on different machines and different browsers and this strange behavior persists.

I should also mention that this is restricted to Form Blocks, everything works fine if the input form isn't in a block.

I think I'm having the same problem. I have multiple fields on a view that use the same CCK date field with pop-up calendar. Only the first one on the page works, but for the rest of them, the calendar doesn't pop-up??

Even I am facing the same issue in Date 7.x-2.8.
The date pop-up worked only for a few days later there is a simple blank space instead of the pop-up area.
On inspect it showed some Uncaught type error.
I have asked on Stackoverflow where they recommended to update the jquery using the jquery update module.I tried that and couldn't update

Unfortunately the Drupal 6 version of the Date module is no longer supported. That said, we appreciate that you took time to work on this issue. Should this request still be relevant for Drupal 7 please feel free to reopen it. Thank you.
