I want change the data using javascript.

I am sending the query in mysql and I request for the date, so I need to put that date there I tried document.getElementById.('something').value=$new and it didn't work.

Answer 1

Because the date format has to be in ISO 8601 format you might have to edit what you are passing as the value

eg:

<input type="date" name="dt" value="1999-07-16">

works but

<input type="date" name="dt" value="1999-7-16">

doesn't
