Hello Adobe experts,

I am trying to add pop up calendar to my form - so when you click on the date field pop up calendar appears and you can choose the date from it.

Is there a javascript for it or should I browse over tools?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

THank you George, is there a javascript for previosu vrsions?


There is no native popup calendar in previous versions. The best JavaScript/Form based calendar can be found here:

Bear in mind that both you AND your end users must be up to date. It’s a recent new thing.

Only put the date format and it will generate pop up calendar? That easy?

As I was going through this question also stumbled upon this: PDF Form Validation|Advanced Acroform Toolset|PDF Calendar|PDF File Upload|Required Dropdown

Is it because Acrobat Dc is more advanced?

You just need to add a text field and double click on it to get the option window.

Choose date from the format tab:

Thank you Omar but I belive this will just set the date - but I want actual calendar to pop and users can select the date

Simple use a form text field with date format.
