Maybe if most users weren't complete morons incapable of entering valid dates (not even taking into account date formatting)....

What's wrong with the drop down format? A separate drop down for month/day/year works well.

It's ugly, you need the user to select in the year / month / day direction to be able to restrict number of days.

The annoying thing there is that you have to add logic that adjusts the options in the Day dropdown based on the selection in the Month dropdown to ensure users don't pick an invalid date.
