GTK and date edit widget

[John Goche <johngoche99 googlemail com>]

Hello,

Just about four years ago there use to be
a date edit widget in gnome but not in gtk.
Has the situation changed? Basically I just
need something that looks like a text box
but that validates the date typed in it.
Please let me know whether anything
like that exists in the current version
of gtk as I desperately need to have
it so that I can also use it under
windows so I need it not to be a
gnome-specific widget.

Thanks,

John GOche
