Epoch – The World's Most Advanced JavaScript Calendar

Upgrade your site users’ Experience

As the internet evolves, users are demanding more professional interfaces when entering their data online. The default web forms so prevalent on the internet have begun to show some cracks when it comes to delivering a rich user experience. At the same time, webmasters need a quick and easy way to design and validate forms that handle customer data quickly and securely.

The old way of handling dates is, well, dated

Multiple <SELECT> elements are cumbersome to use and maintain:

<INPUT> elements are time-consuming for the user and a nightmare for the developer to validate:

Epoch is the Answer.

Fast, easy to use, and easy to configure, Epoch allows the web developer to quickly upgrade their users' web experience without spending hours developing complex date-validation scripts. Constructed using Javascript – the Web's most widely-supported scripting language, and CSS – the universally supported rich styling system, Epoch is a powerful facet of any advanced website.

Epoch is fully W3C standards compliant and runs flawlessly on all major browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer®, Mozilla, FireFox, Netscape Navigator®, Opera, and more.
