title: asp classic pass form of type=date
body: <p>I have run into an issue here. The form of type DATE is not passing to my ASP Classic page.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="date" name="theDate"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the asp side, does not get the date sent to it.</p>
  
  <p>This is a demo page. <a href="http://www.cffcs.com/stuff/one/Pick.asp" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.cffcs.com/stuff/one/Pick.asp</a>
  This is the Form.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;form action="process.asp" method="post" name="RegForm" onSubmit="xmlhttpPost('process.asp', 'RegForm', 'RegDiv', '&amp;lt;img src=\'graph/moreajax.gif\'&amp;gt;'); return false;" class="form-2" style="width:90%;"&gt;  
  &lt;input tabindex="7" type="date" name="Birthdate" placeholder="DD/MM/YYYY"  style="height:30px;"/&gt; 
  &lt;input tabindex="9" type="submit" name="Submit" value="Create"&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  &lt;div id="RegDiv"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is the process.asp part of it.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;%
  mydate = CDate(Request.Form("Birthdate"))
  response.Write mydate&amp;"&lt;br /&gt;"
  response.write(FormatDateTime(mydate,1) &amp; "&lt;br /&gt;")
  %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the JS file, that is included in the page. I had to add in the following on line 63</p>
  
  <pre><code>|| elemType == "DATE"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Once that was added in, it went to working.</p>
  
  <p>That takes care of this one.</p>
