  date_select( year_list, year_value, month_value, day_value,
               blank, year_field, month_field, day_field, field_prefix )
     Display three dropdown boxes for inputting dates.

  Parameters:

     year_list    = list of years
     object       = Class::Date object from which we can get the year,
                    month and day; if this is given we ignore the
                    year/month/day_value fields
     year_value   = chosen year
     month_value  = chosen month (number)
     day_value    = chosen day (number)
     is_blank     = if true, start each SELECT with a blank option
     year_field   = name for year SELECT
     month_field  = name for month SELECT
     day_field    = name for day SELECT
     field_prefix = use instead of specifying year/month/day_field;
                    prefix to put in front of '_year', '_month' and
                    '_day' (e.g, if field_prefix = 'birthdate', the
                    fields would be 'birthdate_year',
                    'birthdate_month', and 'birthdate_day')
     comment      = if true includes an HTML comment with values (debugging)

  Defaults:
     year_list = 2000 .. 2010
