Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-5608:
-----------------------------------------

I've spent a lot of time on this and I cannot find out what is the problem.
There are many complains in Internet about IE8 and innerHTML.
I have the feeling that it fails because the produced HTML is invalid - org.apache.wicket.extensions.yui.calendar.DatePicker#afterRender() writes some <span> elements (an inline element!) and later line 3336 tries to set a <table> as innerHTML. I've changed it to <div> instead and now the HTML is valid but IE8 still fails ...
The only way I made it work is by removing all children of the <div>, then create a dummy child and finally use jQuery.replaceWith() to replace the dummy with the generated HTML. I guess jQuery sanitizes it somehow. But this fix is really ugly - it introduces jQuery in this YUI2 based component ...

I'd recommend you to use any jQuery based datepicker. Wicket-Bootstrap and Wicket-JQuery-UI projects provide such.
