title: How to implement date selector to HighChart StockChart in reactjs (without jQuery)
body: <p>I've been using highcharts in a react application, and relatively new to both. The last missing piece of my goal is to get a calendar popup hooked into the date selection range in a stock chart. Without jQuery. There are a couple of examples that come close to what I would like. </p>

  <p>Post that links to use of <a href="https://react-day-picker.js.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">react-day-picker</a> outside the chart: <a href="https://whawker.github.io/react-jsx-highcharts/examples/CustomComponent/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Post found on the HighChart support forum</a></p>
  
  <p>What I do have working fully is the use of the react-day-picker calendar <strong>outside</strong> the chart, including the plumbing - updating the selection range after selecting a date, etc. I've even tried an approach of moving this element into the chart svg, but wasn't able to get that to work. So my goal is to implement a lightweight date picker that can be bound to the built-in data selector input elements <strong>inside</strong> the chart area (again without jQuery).</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be much appreciated. </p>
