Remove input[type=datetime] #336

Because there is no implementation now though Presto Opera had it.
We don't have a plan to implement it in Blink.

Presto: All input types were supported.
Blink: datetime is not supported.
Edge 13.10586: datetime is not supported.
Mobile Safari: datetime is not supported.
Mobile Firefox: month, week, datetime, and datetime-local are not supported.
Desktop Safari: date, datetime, datetime-local, month, time, and week are not supported.
Desktop Firefox: date, datetime, datetime-local, month, time, and week are not supported.

I guess it's too late to rename datetime-local to datetime. Bit of a shame. Would making them an alias work?

foolip · 2015-11-14T15:53:23Z

Relevant use counters:

InputTypeDateTimeFallback for when type=datetime falls back to the behavior of type=text.
InputTypeDateTimeLocal for type=datetime-local.

Both are counted only when the computed style is is not visibility:hidden. (Not sure why, there are many other ways to not be visible.)

annevk · 2015-11-15T16:08:34Z

From that it seems that neither is really used. @hober, do you have views on this? @travisleithead?

tkent-google · 2015-11-15T23:45:16Z

We received multiple bug reports when we introduced a regression of input[type=datetime-local] in Blink. So, I think it has real users, and we won't remove it.

annevk · 2015-11-16T08:15:22Z

Alright, I guess removing datetime first would be good. We can always reconsider later if we want to make it an alias for datetime-local.

tkent-google · 2015-11-26T08:06:32Z

😄 Thanks!

annevk · 2015-11-26T08:17:29Z

Thank you for the suggestion!

stuartpb · 2015-12-01T11:34:47Z

What's the new (existing) suggested best practice for unambiguous time point entry now? Have a datetime-local alongside a dropdown for picking the time zone?

foolip · 2015-12-01T19:33:51Z

That or an entirely custom component, I guess.

domenic · 2015-12-01T19:36:24Z

FWIW that's what Outlook does :)

annevk · 2015-12-07T01:20:51Z

Google Calendar does the same. Seems good enough.

It has been removed from the HTML specification: whatwg/html#336 Only Presto Opera ever implemented a special UI for it. [skip sauce]

rvklein · 2016-02-10T22:40:35Z

Great, now we don't have a future option for unambiguous TZ datetime input. Thanks a lot.

annevk · 2016-02-11T04:54:39Z

I don't quite understand what you mean. Removal from the standard does not stop it from being introduced again at some point in the future.

rvklein · 2016-02-12T23:13:14Z

@annevk : It's likely my fault for misunderstanding the WHATWG process for these issues. Regardless, apologies for the sarcasm.

annevk · 2016-02-13T06:38:18Z

https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/FAQ#Is_there_a_process_for_removing_bad_ideas_from_a_specification.3F should explain the rationale. Basically, if something is not implemented and there is no desire to implement, we remove it. This happens at times. We've started being a lot more careful about adding new features though, so it should happen less going forward.

Sorumeiji · 2016-06-22T14:46:39Z

With datetime removed, this pretty much changes forums optimization a lot doesn't it? Its adding a another question or input. I am fine with this, but I don't see why to remove something useful.

domenic · 2016-06-22T14:48:22Z

Since it wasn't implemented anywhere, I have a hard time seeing how it changes anything.

Sorumeiji · 2016-06-22T14:51:16Z

True, I just read more into the MDN docs. I forgot there is "time", so I am guessing that's used more. Sorry about that.
