How to set input type date in dd-mm-yyyy format using HTML ?

Last Updated : 11 May, 2020

To set and get the input type date in dd-mm-yyyy format we will use <input> type attribute. The <input> type attribute is used to define a date picker or control field. In this attribute, you can set the range from which day-month-year to which day-month-year date can be selected from. If min and max values are not set then default min value is set to “01-01-1920” and default max value is set to “01-01-2120”.

Example 1: This example uses <input type=”date”> attribute to get the date in dd-mm-yyyy format.
