Why bother with any PHP, just use a Javascript based date picker.
There will be
many JQuery based things, a quick Google, for example:

    http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/

That JQuery based picker, has an event: beforeShowDay which (based on the docs)
would allow you to implement what ever day selection logic you need, eg:

    $('.selector').datepicker({
       beforeShowDay: function(date) { return [ false, 'booked', 'All
days are booked!' ]; }
    });

Also, Javascript shares nothing with Java.  They are entirely separate
and should
never be confused.
