I am trying out jqueryUI, but firebug catches the following error on this script:
$(function(){$("#date").datepicker()});
The firebug error reads:
$("#date").datepicker is not a function
On my html, the "date" id looks like this:
<input type="text" name="date" id="date" >
NB: I have used the correct JqueryUI css/js scripts on the section
Nothing is executing...

jQuery documentation says you can call the datepicker by this command:
$("#datepicker").datepicker();
If you click the 'view source' button on the documentation page you can see that they've wrapped it into the ready function:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#datepicker").datepicker();
});
EDIT: It should work with INPUT (thanks for pointing this out Steerpike). This is the test I've written and it works, try it yourself:
<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" href="http://jqueryui.com/latest/themes/base/ui.all.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryui.com/latest/jquery-1.3.2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryui.com/latest/ui/ui.core.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryui.com/latest/ui/ui.datepicker.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#datepicker").datepicker();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" id="datepicker" value="this is a test">
</body>
</html>
You're almost certainly not loading the datepicker plugin properly. Please supply us the code you're using to include the javascript files.
If you keep having problems, load the jquery and the UI from the google api.
<link type="text/css" href="http://jqueryui.com/latest/themes/base/ui.all.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load("jquery", "1.3.2");
google.load("jqueryui", "1.7.0");
</script>
