How to make display the date in localized format in Chrome?

Question

I'm using the HTML5 `<input type="date">`, which in Chrome renders a rich input control displaying the date in the format `MM/DD/YYYY`. The problem is that my application expects input in a localized format server-side, which means `MM.DD.YYYY`. Is there any way I can change the way Chrome renders and takes input from date controls?

Accepted Answer

Chrome renders the date on the format for the language configured in Settings > Language:

Chrome (and other browsers) always post dates in RFC 3339-format according to the HTML5 standard. Make sure the server accepts date on that format only.
