setValue function doesn't work correctly on DojoX Widget Calendar

[Aurelijus]

Hi,

here is the problem. After the page is loaded, calendar shows todays date (by showing correct month, year and highlighting a day) and then instantly changes to the month and year from dateObject (in this place it does almost what I want). However, after the month and year is changed the correct day is not highlighted, instead todays day stays unchanged.

Javascript:

	<script type="text/javascript">
			dojo.require("dojo.parser");	// scan page for widgets and instantiate them
			dojo.require("dojo.date.stamp");
			
			var dateObject = new dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString('2008-07-11');
			dojo.addOnLoad(function(){
				
				var Calendar = dijit.byId('cal');
				Calendar.setValue(dateObject);
				
			});
		</script>

Html:

	<div dojoType="dojox.widget.Calendar" id="cal"></div>

patch to fix this issue, contains attr method to replace setValue

closing in favor of #8169 - which addresses this issue. see also #6627

hopefully by 1.3, this .attr() will be safe and documented.
