On native datepickers (pikaday.dbushell.com)

While looking around for datepicker libraries, I came across this helpful guide on how you can use native datepickers for most, if not all, required datepicker functionality. Sure, it may not be as flashy as the JS enhanced or framework alternatives, but still worth considering IMO.

I am sorry, but it works for me. Can you please give a link for the issue. in the above website only, when i visit, all date fields have a calendar icon next to them, which when I click, a gtk date picker pops up (is this something that works on linux and not elsewhere or something like that?)

Sure, here is a Screenshot of only the datepicker showing on the datetime input:

And this is the 12 year old bugticket about that problem: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=datetime

thanks. I think i must have confused the time input and date input.
