HTML5 JavaScript Date Time Form Field Input Types Tutorial

Learn to program HTML5 Date and Time Form input attributes and tie the fields to Javascript for Ajax PHP processing. Use Opera for testing until the other browser vendors fix their stuff up. 2014 is the release date for HTML5 as a web standard, until then do not count on it. But come 2014 it will work everywhere applicable.

If you're using document.getElementById I don't understand why you're passing everything through the function name at the same time. You never use f1 ... f6 in the code at all.

this is a badass tutorial. definitely you can expand this using ajax. without using jquery date picker.

I like the look of jquery code more than js these days as it looks neater and more understandable can you make a new tut on a date and time picker (AIO) using jquery and show how to submit the data to php?

OMG- you're funny! Ok? OK! I'm subscribing.

[kogalo]

There are browsers supporting the date picker without javascript

Now 2014. Only works in Chrome. What's wrong with my IE and FF? I'll install Opera later and test it.

Amazed W3C specification doesn't include any formatting option. it is sent as plain text to the server using whatever local date time format the used on client site, so chances are that you get month and day switched, or just breaking your server side code. a completely useless feature

[johnnypatino]

This is the best explanation for a tutorial on dates I've ever seen. Many thanks.

Hi - nice tut... do you have any more tuts teaching "Javascript for total dumbass designers" with little or rather no developer coding experience? There are a lot of people out there who are very clever with Javascript... but are useless at explaining what they are doing... you don't, you explain really well.

OMG, is this lesson conducted by a robot?
