You can compare input.type with input.getAttribute("type").
In Opera 9.21 (which supports type=date), both return "date".
In Firefox and IE7, input.type returns "text" while
input.getAttribute("type") is "date".

It is: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-forms/current-work/#dom
<script>
alert(document.implementation.hasFeature("WebForms", "2.0"));
</script>
