        size="2" />
      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</h:form><script type="text/javascript" xml:space="preserve">//<![CDATA[


  function updateFields(cal) {
          var date = cal.selection.get();
          if (date) {
                  date = Calendar.intToDate(date);
                  document.getElementById("f_date").value = Calendar.printDate(date, "%Y-%m-%d");
          }
          document.getElementById("f_hour").value = cal.getHours();
          document.getElementById("f_minute").value = cal.getMinutes();
  };

  Calendar.setup({
          cont         : "cont",
          showTime     : 12,
          onSelect     : updateFields,
          onTimeChange : updateFields
  });

//]]></script>

Thanks in advance, best regards

You should reuse input element from <h:inputText> when setting up JS calendar. Use inputField argument to pass id of input generated by JSF. It could be form1:f_date but check html source to make sure.

EDIT:

prefix id with “form1:” in updateFields”

document.getElementById("form1:f_date")

and get rid of

<input style="text-align: center" name="date" id="f_date"
       size="14" />
