                showOn: "button",
                buttonText: "..."
            });

I am able to see the the date and I can select the date. But when I open the datepicker Iam not seeing the Arrows on the popup box. << < March 2012 > >>

It must be something to do with the CSS you're using.

Here is a jsFiddle.

http://jsfiddle.net/C9rCT/

It uses jQuery 1.7, jQuery UI and links to the jQuery UI CSS file from Google (http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.9/themes/base/jquery-ui.css)

Make sure you also have the CSS and images from the jQuery you downloaded.
