Date and Datetime composite inputs for Silverstripe

Collect a date or datetime input via single composite field made up of relevant day, month, year and time inputs. The parent field is a standard composite field with child fields submitting data within the form submission for validation.

Child input fields are standard numeric inputs. The time field is a time input.

All child fields are accessible via keyboard navigation.
