HTML 5 defines input type="date" as an input state. This is implemented in at least one userAgent (Opera). Which other browsers have implemented that? It seems like the added value to the programmer for valueAsDate appears to be convenience method to format to/parse from ISO 8601, but place on input as a behavior property, and working only when the input is in the "date" state. For setting[1], the convenience appears to be to set a date value when the Date's [[value]] is "valid", although a "valid" date does not seem to be mentioned, much less clearly defined, and the reference links to [GREGORIAN] are broken[1]. I can't see much other reason for having valueAsDate. Am I missing something? [1]http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#valid-date-string Regards, Garrett
