We are currently running a survey in which respondents are asked to type in the dates they attended a training/event. Is it possible to make the question a "clickable" calendar as opposed to manual date entry?

@hibbarmj,

I recommend NOT using the date picker in Qualtrics library. Use flatpickr. Do a community search for more info.

@TomG why do you not recommend the date picker? Asking for future reference. 🙂

Because it is antiquated - it doesn't look as nice, lacks features, and is difficult to customize.
Thanks for the feedback. It continues to say its unable to save my question because "it should be saved in the Javascript" area. Is there a code i should be using?

you can't paste the code in regular code creation area. there is a separate "Java only" area you can get to by clicking the little wheel icon to the left of the question. it used to be one of the options on that popup menu to get to the JavaScript screen
