HTML DOM Input Month object

Input Month object

Input Month objects are new to HTML5.

The Input Month object represents an HTML-lt;input-gt; element that uses type "month".

Note: Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers do not support the use of the type-"month" property.

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

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

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

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

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