type=date

type=date

Hi;
 
I have the next input control:
 
<input name="fech" id="fech" type="date">
 
And when I initialize the form, I do for example:
 
$('#fech').attr('value', '16/04/2013')
 
Under I.E. 9, or Blackberry browser the controls shows up with that value and as a standard date input. But under Chrome, it shows me dd/mm/aaaa instead of 16/04/2013. How can I make it working in same way for all the browsers?.
 
Best regards,
 
Adriano
