I have the text field associated to Calendar object.

<input type=text name='period' id='period' class="css1" />

    mcal1 = new dhtmlxCalendarObject('period');
    mcal1.setSkin("yahoolike");

text field is populated from database. In my case the value inside period field is 2008-07-16

when I click on the text box, calendar pops up with current date.

How do I set the date of calendar to the date in text box?

Current version doesn't take the data automatically you can set it as 

 mcal1 = new dhtmlxCalendarObject('period'); 
 mcal1.setFormatedDate("%Y-%m-%d",document.getElementById('period').value);
 mcal1.setSkin("yahoolike");
