Topic: Date input field does not show date selection in Safari on iPhone

Custer priority asked 3 years ago

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

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

Custer priority commented 3 years 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 3 years ago

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

Custer priority commented 3 years ago

Ok, I hope so. Thank you.

Best regards

Custer

No problem, best Grzegorz

Custer priority commented 3 years ago

You're welcome :)

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.
