Expected behavior

When pressing on a date input field, there should come up de datepicker of the safari.

Actual behavior

When pressing on a date input field, there is coming up the normal keyboard, instead of the date picker from safari

Hi

Input type date doesn't provide date picker after click. If you want your component work as expected use datepicker component instead.

I mean not the datepicker from mdbootstrap. I mean the normal chose of a date in the iPhone Safari Browser. On esch website you click on a date field, there appears not the normal keyboard, it appears a selection for the date. But in mdbootstrap it doesn‘t anymore. Try it.

At the moment it is actually not possible to use the default datepicker. But in the next MDB version this will be fixed.


Custer pro premium commented 10 months ago

Ok thank you. Because some versions ago, it worked perfectly.

It's even not possible to type in something. So a date input is absolutely useless at the moment.

Is there any workaround?


Grzegorz Bujański staff commented 10 months ago

Unfortunately not at the moment. But next week there will be a version in which this problem should be solved.


Custer pro premium commented 10 months ago

Ok, I hope so. Thank you.

Best regards

Custer
