How to extract values from an HTML date input with JavaScript?
To extract values from an HTML date input with JavaScript, we can add a change event listener to the date input.
Then we can get the input value from the e.target.value property in the event listener.
For instance, we write:
<input type="date" />
to add an input.
Then we write:
const input = document.querySelector('input')
input.onchange = (e) => {
console.log(e.target.value)
}
to select an input.
Then we set the input.onchange property to a function that logs the e.target.value, which is the selected date string.
The selected date will be a ISO-8601 format string.
