This affects the default use-case (date, but no time entry) only. We made a late change to have the component retain the original behavior in terms of automatically closing when a date is selected in date-entry mode, which must be what introduced this issue.
Focus should be returned to the popup calendar button when a date is selected in this way. Note that no changes should be made to the focus mgmt. behavior if a date+time entry is occurring.
Fixed:
Changes made so the calendar button will get the focus after date selection in Date-only selection mode.

Verified with success on ICEfaces 1.8.1 build 1 + Glassfish v2.1 using component showcase facelets-enh
Browsers tested:
FF3 - can actually see focus on calendar button after the popup is closed
IE7 - cannot see where the focus is after the popup calendar gets closed, but the popup calendar will be brought up once the Enter key is hit. It means the calendar button really has the focus.
Opera 9.64 - the same behavior as in IE7
We found a workaround, but it only works for us, there were significant changes between icefaces 1.8dr2 and 1.8rc1 for the selectinputdate, we don't really need that new functionality , at least we can live without it for now. We retrofitted the selectinputdateRenderer for 1.8dr2 to 1.80 ga. We did some regression test and it seems to function as the 1.70 component did. The fix in ice-4401 is necessary to make this work.
