When trying to run locally the last example (with javascript code) available in the page
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/Input/date
for testing date input type, it does not work, either with IE (date type not recognised) or with Firefox:

Enter your birthday: yyyy/mm/dd

Enter your birthday:
Day:   Month: January Year:

The javascript console:
   TypeError: fallbackPicker is null
on the line:
   fallbackPicker.style.display = 'none';
