why don't I see a date selector with firefox?

datepicker, firefox, google-chrome, html

Solution

Why is that ? Is it that firefox doesn't support all the featurs of HTML 5 ?

Yes, FireFox doesn't support all HTML 5 features. For example FireFox 19 doesn't support the `date` field.

Here's more details about browser support the `date` input field: http://caniuse.com/input-datetime

Problem

The following HTML generates a date selector on chrome : ``` <html> <head> <title> </title> </head> <body> <form> <input type="date" /> </form> </body> ``` but it shows a simple text-field on `firefox 19.0.2`. Why is that ? Is it that firefox doesn't support all the featurs of `HTML 5` ?
