Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I've made a new form element type of datetime which I'm currently using in one of my modules. I think it would be better placed being part of a form element pack module such as this. Please review and let me know what you think.

dave reidI'd much prefer people use Date API which provides datetime elements for forms.

jenlamptonIt doesn't look like you can use a date api form element unless it's on a field :/
Comment #3
dave reid@jenlampton: Well in the three years since I've had a chance to re-evaluate. I've been planning on backporting the HTML5 date/datetime/time elements to this module, but hadn't filed an issue yet.

thekevinday commentedThere is an old thread here with a patch: #1328650: HTML5 Date Input form elements.
Comment #5
malcomio commentedSeems to be a duplicate of the issue mentioned by thekevinday: #1328650: HTML5 Date Input form elements
There's also #876780: Add Date elements - I've also marked that as a duplicate.
