I am using date type field as Input type
where serviceAssetItem is an instance of a wrapper
class as follows:
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!ServiceAsset}" var="serviceAssetItem" id="assetListTable">
<apex:column headerValue="Sales Date">
<apex:input type="date" value="{!serviceAssetItem.SalesDate}"/>
</apex:column>
</apex:pageBlockTable>
Sales Date
field is displaying as follows:
If I have SObject
like objServiceAsset
, then using below code 'Sales Date` is showing like this.
<apex:pageBlock title="Add Item">
<apex:pageBlockSection>
<apex:inputField value="{!objServiceAsset.Sales_Date__c}"/>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
How can I have this SFDC date picker
to be displayed in my first example where the object instance is not of SOBject
.

You might go to jQuery UI path as mentioned Adrian, but quite a bit of work to be honest. It's a bit ugly, but you could maybe use an existing custom object in your wrapper class that have a date field then populate that to your serviceAssetItem.SalesDate in the get method. So in the page you would use inputField as per normal sobject but you don't use serviceAssetItem.SalesDate you would use the date of your custom object in your warepper class.
