HTML DOM Input Email object

Input Email object

Input Email objects are new to HTML5.

The Input DatetimeLocal object represents an HTML-lt;input> element that uses type-"email".

Note: Internet Explorer 9 (and earlier versions of IE), or Safari does not support HTML and input elements that use type"email".

You can use the getElementById() function to access the elements that use the type-"email" property:

var x = document.getElementById("myEmail"); Give it a try

Tip: You can also access the Input Email object through the form's collection of elements.

You can use the document.createElement() method to create an element that uses the type-"email" property:

var x = document.createElement("INPUT");
x.setAttribute("type", "email"); Give it a try
