The purpose of <input type=date> is to allow the browser to supply the user with a datepicker. Opera, for example, already does this. If you would like to show a datepicker to users of all browsers, use feature detection (such as through the Modernizr script) to detect whether or not the browser support date inputs, and if not, supply the js version. ~TJ
