/**
* Calendar Date Picker constructor
*
* This is how you can create an object:
*
* var cdp = new CalendarDatePicker({
* debug : true,
* weekStartsAt : 1,
* excludeDays : [6,0,1],
* excludeDates : ['20081225','20081226'],
* minimumFutureDate : [7,true],
* formatDate : '%d-%m-%y'
* });
*
* if you are unfamiliar with this syntax, you could also try this notation:
*
* var props = {};
* props.debug = true;
* props.weekStartsAt = 1;
* props.excludeDays = [6,0,1];
* props.excludeDates = ['20081225','20081226'];
* props.minimumFutureDate = [7,true];
* props.formatDate = '%d-%m-%y';
* var cdp = new CalendarDatePicker(props);
*
* which does exactly the same.
*
* These are the properties that can be set:
* debug if true, error messages will be shown (in the form of alerts)
* excludeDays days (of the week) that are not selectable (0-6; 0=sunday, 6=saturday)
* excludeDates array of dates that are not selectable. format: yyyymmdd
* minimumDate dates before this date are not selectable. format: yyyymmdd
* maximumDate dates after this date are not selectable. format: yyyymmdd
* weekStartsAt indicates on which day a week in the calendar must start (0-6; 0=sunday, 6=saturday)
* minimumFutureDate same as minimum date but defined as an offset on the current date.
* must be set as an array of which the second argument indicates whether excluded days should be considered as well
* startYear first selectable year in the select-box of the calendar
* endYear last selectable year in the select-box of the calendar
*
* For a more extensive overview and explanation of the properties, see:
* http://devshed.excudo.net/scripts/javascript/example/calendar_date_picker_help.php
*
* @param array props
* @return CalendarDatePicker

* The following two functions are maintained independantly from the calendar-date-picker script at:

* You are encouraged to place them in a seperate file; although this script will always contain the latest code with every update, it will not
* get updated because of a code change in those functions.
* Moreover, even though it works, i'm not overly happy with this code and any discussions should take place there.
