How can I get a calendar to appear when I am adding a new task

ljones4521 says:
I just signed up for RTM and have attempted to input a few tasks. Problem is I can't figure out how to make a calendar pop up so I can determine correct due dates.

For instance I want to remind myself to order library books in say 2 weeks, but I of course don't know the date. How do I do this? It has been driving me crazy to have to go to windows calendar and then come back to finish entering a task.

Hi ljones4521,
As judis mentioned, it's not currently possible to select the date from a calendar-style date picker, sorry.

In the meantime, rather than entering a specific due date, you can enter a due date of 2 weeks from today. This may help you enter a due date without referring to your calendar. You can find some examples of acceptable due date formats here.

Then again, adding a calendar popup to the web interface shouldn't take long, it's actually already overdue!
