title: Google Chrome input type="date"
body: <p>I have almost no knowledge of web programming, but I have been tasked to solve something on my company's website.  Apparently, I have an issue with browsers using HTML5 on a legacy site using type="date" and I need to find a way around it.  </p>
  
  <p>My site has a lot of date fields that the user must input like such:</p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;input type="date" name="DateStart" size="15" value="8/30/2011"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In every browser we currently use except Chrome, this works just fine. Chrome is the only browser that supplies rolling buttons to scroll through the date.  What I see on the back end of this is an attempt to do this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>FormatDateTime(DateStart, 2)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get an invalid date error which means that we cannot use Chrome to fill out this form. Is there a way around this problem?</p>
