javascript - How to remove time value in datetime-local input type?

Question

I am using datetime-local input type in HTML, but I don't want to use the time portion. I want to only get the date.

<input type="datetime-local" name="book_date" id="book_date">

This is the output I get from the input field:

2018-04-22T03:02

I want:

2018-04-22

Or how to remove the time portion from this value?

Answer 1

If you only want the date portion, use type="date":

<input type="date" name="book_date" id="book_date"
       onchange="console.log(this.value);" />
