I search a good calendar for my business application.
The Microsoft ASP.NET calendar is perfect for my requirement, but I heard that this component is not longer supported by Microsoft. My apprehension is that I must in the near future program a new one.
Should I use a jQuery calendar ? Can I use a future-proof library ?

Why not the Calendar control from Ajax Control Toolkit?
http://www.asp.net/ajax/ajaxcontroltoolkit/samples/calendar/calendar.aspx
Also why take a calendar control very seriously ;-)?? If they stop support or change something its not going to be a show stopper. you will be able to update/change easily.

you might want to design your own interface or decade class to be future-proof. i think nothing is certain in this world. In my project, jquery UI is used but i treat it as normal textbox with certain input-format string. You might want to create a custom user control in ASP .NET, therefore even you change the front end UI with correct format; nothing need to be changed to C# code.
In my opinion, it is always adding a decade to 3th part component.
