Adding HTML5 Input field types

[jeffatstepup]

Are there any plans to add the new HTML5 input element types like url,
tel, number etc?

If not I'm happy to look into doing this.

I'm new to dForm so any pointers would be very welcome.

Ok, so adding the following to dform.subscribers appears to be having
the right effect. Is this the best way to implement this?


text : _element('<input type="text" />'),

//Adding HTML types
number : _element('<input type="number" />'),
url : _element('<input type="url" />'),
tel : _element('<input type="tel" />'),
email : _element('<input type="email" />'),

Exactly. The _element function is dForm.js module specific so you
couldn't access it if you
want to add the types in an external file, but it makes sense to add
that to the core
system. Would we need any fallbacks for browsers that don't support
these fields? I assume
that they will be just displayed as text anyway?
I can add it right away, it would be easier though if you fork on
GitHub, add the
types and make a pull request.

Thanks
