Will the new html5 input types be added to jquery-ui
//i am not an opera fan
the types are
date: should open a date picker {works in opera, so should either over-right it or let the browser take care of it}
datetime: should open a date picker with a time picker attached {date part works in opera, it then just chooses your system time}
number: should filter all input to be only numbers {0-9}
search: this is for inline searches, can support the list attribute, so that you can specify local searchs without having to do ajax or other methods
e.g.
<input type="search" list="a,asda" />
would produce
[search]
[search a]
-a
-asda
thats a full list of the elements and if your browser supports the types nativly
all of these elements support an attribte called "placeholder" that does the inline text like mobileme, without having to create a js method for it
//reason
the reason i ask for this, is so that i can do
$("input:date").datepicker();
at the moment the only way to do this is by adding an id/class and then selecting that, rather than its actual type
