Problem

I am using the bootstrap datepicker for a Date of Birth field. But apparently users are not using the year drop down field properly. What I would like to do is have a staged setup, where with 3 clicks they go from choosing year, then month and then the day. I think it would be much more user friendly. This is how i see it working: step 1: select year Step 2: select month step 3: select day Does anyone know if this is possible?
