HTML <input> type="month"

HTML <img>

HTML <ins>

The <input> tag with a type="month" attribute creates a text field that accepts a month and year value.

Inside this field is a calendar icon. Clicking the icon opens a month/year picker.

Example

#

An <input> element of type month.
Clicking the calendar icon opens a month/year picker. Alternatively, enter the month and year directly into the field.

<form action="/tutorial/action.html">
  <fieldset>
    <legend>Birth month/year</legend>

    <input type="month" name="birthmonth"><br /><br />

    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
  </fieldset>
</form>

Using input type="month"

#

The <input type="month"> specifies a month and year picker.

Clicking the calendar icon opens the month/year picker.

The UI of this control varies from browser to browser. In addition, browser support is spotty.

The month field also accepts manual entry which follows a month/year format.
