title: output a message to a user in the same html page using jquery/js
body: <p>I want to  output a message to the user in the same html page that confirms the date they have selected. I don't want an alert box, just to display it in the same page that they are in.</p>
  
  <p>Thought it might be something like this, but I'm not sure:</p>
  
  <pre><code>document.writeln("You have selected: " + dateText);
  </code></pre>
