As a developer, it would just peachy if they'd start supporting HTML5 input elements.


Firefox has support for a bunch of them and that's been steadily improving – i.e. the input type=range landed in (IIRC) FF 23.

You can see the current status for just about everything here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344614 As you can see from reading some of the linked tickets not all of the remaining work is trivial – there are questions about the spec, compatibility with webkit, etc:

type=color: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=547004 type=number: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344616 type=date: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446510


Just tested on nightly, looks like range and color are implemented, date seems to be the last major one
