HTML `<input type='date'>` Formatting guide on iOS Safari - Dates Displaying Incorrectly
I'm confused about I am experiencing an scenario with the `<input type='date'>` element in my HTML form, specifically when viewed on iOS Safari (version 15.4)... When users try to select a date, the formatting appears to be incorrect, displaying the date as `MM-DD-YYYY` instead of the expected `YYYY-MM-DD` format. This is causing confusion for users who expect the standard behavior of date inputs. I've checked that my HTML code is correctly set up: ```html <form> <label for='birthday'>Birthday:</label> <input type='date' id='birthday' name='birthday' required> <input type='submit' value='Submit'> </form> ``` When testing on other browsers like Chrome and Firefox, the date input behaves as expected, showing the date picker with the correct format. However, on iOS Safari, the date picker seems to default to a different locale setting, resulting in an unexpected display. I also tried using the `lang` attribute in my HTML tag to set the language to English: ```html <html lang='en'> ``` But this did not resolve the scenario. Additionally, I attempted to add some CSS styles to force a specific display format, but that seems to have no effect as the browser’s native date picker is overriding it. Is there a known workaround or solution to ensure that the `<input type='date'>` displays the date correctly on iOS Safari? Any help would be appreciated! I'm working on a service that needs to handle this. What's the best practice here?
