Creating calendar linked to input

Creating calendar linked to input
-----------------------------------------

1. <script>
cal1 = new dhtmlxCalendarObject('calInput1');
</script>
<input type="text" id="calInput1" class="css1" readonly="true">

If i try to use the above code (this is as shown in examples of the calendar control) it does not work.

2. If i create the dhtmlXCalendar object on body onload, only then it works.
<body onLoad="doOnLoad();">

<script>
function doOnLoad ()
{
cal1 = new dhtmlxCalendarObject('calInput1');
}
</script>


Can you please suggest why the isnt the first code does not work.

Regards

The input object must exist on moment of dhtmlxCalendarObject call, so the correct code will be 

<input type="text" id="calInput1" class="css1" readonly="true">
<script> 
cal1 = new dhtmlxCalendarObject('calInput1'); 
</script> 

we will update sample, sorry for inconvenience

Thanks for the reply. I am sorry, even when i was using the code as you mentioned, even then it does not work. I get an IE:Operation aborted error. Can you please suggest.

Thanks

Problem caused by bug in IE rendering engine, but latest version of dhtmlxCalendar already must have workaround for it. 
Please try to use latest version.
