1002384 - HTML5 not supported on firefox ver 26 ubuntu

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 344614

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Trishul]

Attachment: firefox.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131206151508

Steps to reproduce:

I used HTML5 input types such as date, range etc. on Firefox version 26 on Ubuntu 13.04



Actual results:

But They were being shown just as a text box, instead of any of datepicker or range slider.



Expected results:

When we use date input type, datepicker should be shown (as in HTML5), in case of range input type, slider must be shown

Some the new form field types has been implemented like number and a few other. Duping this on the meta bug as you group them all together.

Hi Cork,
Unfortunately I am unable to find any resolution.
Also I am unable to create opendatabase (Inbrowser DB).
Actually I want to create firefox app using these feature, my cordova app (built using these features) work great on Chrome as well as Android platform, but fails for firefox OS.
It seems HTML5 is pain for Mozilla, is it?

Trishul, Cork correctly marked the bug as a duplicate of the bug on implementing the HTML controls, since that's what comment 0 was about.

That said, <input type="range"> is supported in Firefox 26.  <input type="date"> support is tracked by bug 825294.

Please file separate bugs on separate issues.
