It's also not a successful means of detection, it _DOES NOT_ detect suppot for input type=date, and in the previous discussion (before I gave up listing the flaws in the script, of which there are still many) I mentioned the fact along with the some cases where it fails. Please Ian, stop saying that script is perfect when it is so clearly not. It's obvious you've decided the input type=date stays, and as you're the only person who has change control on the specification your decision is final, the fact that no-one else supports you is completely irrelevant, but please don't use that script to create pretend justification of the degradability of input type=date. Jim.
