Date input doesn't render properly in some browsers #1333

Closed

Description

@ross-nordstrom

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

Several modern browsers (Firefox, IE, Safari) do not natively support the date input.
Does (or will) Material2 provide the needed shims for this?

What is the expected behavior?

date inputs should consistently render across browsers.

What is the current behavior?

date input doesn't render into anything meaningful on non-Chrome browsers (below: Firefox)

What are the steps to reproduce?

<md-input type="date"></md-input>

What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?

As a UI framework, I think it's appropriate to say that Material is responsible for ensuring consistent component behavior across browsers.

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, browsers are affected?

I think all versions, but definitely v2.0.0-alpha.7-4, and the latest (v2.0.0-alpha.8-2)

Is there anything else we should know?

    Yep, follow #675 for the full datepicker component.
