Umbraco version 6.1.4, I installed the two packages StandardWebsiteMVC_2.0.zip and Contour (still in trial version)
MVC 4.5, Windows 8, IIS Express, running in localhost/dev
This was the problem/issue, across both IE and Chrome browsers:-
The datepicker would render when you previewed a form containing it, in the Contour section. However, when you added a form which contained a datepicker, then viewed that content, the datepicker would not render.
This issue is easily reproducable and has been noted by other umbraco users, as far as I can tell.
What I did to solve it (which got the datepicker to render):-
Compared view source for previewing the form in the Contour section, and view source for the content that renders the same form (via razor macro).
In the body of /umbraco/plugins/umbracoContour/previewFormDialogMvc.aspx, I found 4 links to various javascript files (lines 28-31), which appear below. I then copied and pasted these links, into /umbraco/plugins/umbracoContour/views/Form.cshtml, just after Html.EnableUnobtrusiveJavaScript(), prefixing each path with ~/umbraco/plugins/umbracocontour/
Found a way to render the datepicker!

Yeah the datepicker that is used by the razor macro is the one from jquery ui so you need that in order to get it working :)
is working on a reply...
