Date entry screw up again:

I originally posted this when the new homepage went live and Delta fixed it almost immediately. Now it's sort of not working again.

If you select a drop down entry from the "Recent Search" list, the website will automatically fill in the previously used dates for that search. I love this feature ^

However, if you want to change one of the dates (outbound or return), I always enter them as "10/7/10" for example. The website throws an error and says I've entered invalid data. No, I haven't entered invalid data. The website just can't handle it. If you do a new search and enter 10/7/10 as a date the website accepts it just fine.

What seems to be happening is if the dates (outbound and return) are entered in a different format the website pukes. This needs to be fixed; because again, I will not use that useless calendar function and will always type in dates manually. I'd like to be able to enter 10/7/10 and not have to go retype things to 10/07/2010.

Thanks,
RM
