In HTML5 we have something like this:

<input type="email" name="email">

In Spring MVC I have a form input with model path just like this:

 <form:input path="email" cssClass="form-control" id="firstname" />

And it is treated as text input. Is it possible to change type of the input to email?

CodePudding user response：

You can use HTML5 types (right at the bottom there) by providing them in the type attribute (the default being "text") e.g.

<form:input type="email" path="email" cssClass="form-control" id="firstname" />
