This was available in the <code>datetime</code> input type, but this type is now obsolete, having been removed from the spec. The main reasons why this was removed are a lack of implementation in browsers and concerns over the user interface/experience. It is easier to just have a control (or controls) for setting the date/time and then deal with the locale in a separate control.</p> <p>For example, if you are creating a system where the user is likely to already be logged in, with their locale already set, you could provide the timezone in a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/hidden"><code>hidden</code></a> input type. For example:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code>&lt;input type="hidden" id="timezone" name="timezone" value="-08:00" /&gt; </code></pre></div> <p>On the other hand, if you were required to allow the user to enter a time zone along with a date/time input, you could have a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/select"><code>&lt;select&gt;</code></a> element to enable the user to set the right time zone by choosing a particular location from among a set of locations:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code>&lt;select name="timezone" id="timezone"&gt; &lt;option value="Pacific/Kwajalein"&gt;Eniwetok, Kwajalein&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="Pacific/Midway"&gt;Midway Island, Samoa&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="Pacific/Honolulu"&gt;Hawaii&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="Pacific/Marquesas"&gt;Taiohae&lt;/option&gt; &lt;!-- and so on --&gt; &lt;/select&gt; </code></pre></div> <p>In either case, the date/time and time zone values would be submitted to the server as separate data points, and then you'd need to store them appropriately in the database on the server-side.</p></div></section><section aria-labelledby="validation"><h2 id="validation"><a href="#validation">Validation</a></h2><div class="section-content"><p>By default, <code>&lt;input type="datetime-local"&gt;</code> does not apply any validation to entered values. The UI implementations generally don't let you enter anything that isn't a date/time — which is helpful — but a user might still fill in no value and submit, or enter an invalid date and/or time (e.g. the 32nd of April).</p> <p>You can use <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#min"><code>min</code></a> and <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#max"><code>max</code></a> to restrict the available dates (see <a href="#setting_maximum_and_minimum_dates_and_times">Setting maximum and minimum dates</a>), and you can use the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#required"><code>required</code></a> attribute to make filling in the date/time mandatory. As a result, supporting browsers will display an error if you try to submit a date that is outside the set bounds or an empty date field.</p> <p>Let's look at an example; here we've set minimum and maximum date/time values, and also made the field required:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code>&lt;form&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;label for="party"&gt; Choose your preferred party date and time (required, June 1st 8.30am to June 30th 4.30pm): &lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="party" type="datetime-local" name="party-date" min="2017-06-01T08:30" max="2017-06-30T16:30" required /&gt; &lt;span class="validity"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Book party!" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre></div> <p>If you try to submit the form with an incomplete date (or with a date outside the set bounds), the browser displays an error. Try playing with the example now:</p><div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"></div><iframe class="sample-code-frame" title="Validation sample" id="frame_validation" width="600" height="120" src="about:blank" data-live-path="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/datetime-local" data-live-id="validation" sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-scripts" loading="lazy"></iframe></div> <p>Here's the CSS used in the above example. Here we make use of the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:valid"><code>:valid</code></a> and <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:invalid"><code>:invalid</code></a> CSS properties to style the input based on whether the current value is valid. We put the icons on a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/span"><code>&lt;span&gt;</code></a> next to the input.</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">css</span></div><pre class="brush: css notranslate"><code>div { margin-bottom: 10px; display: flex; align-items: center; } label { display: inline-block; width: 300px; } input:invalid + span::after { content: "✖"; padding-left: 5px; } input:valid + span::after { content: "✓"; padding-left: 5px; } </code></pre></div> <div class="notecard warning"> <p><strong>Warning:</strong> HTML form validation is <em>not</em> a substitute for scripts that ensure that the entered data is in the proper format. It's far too easy for someone to make adjustments to the HTML that allow them to bypass the validation, or to remove it entirely. It's also possible for someone to bypass your HTML entirely and submit the data directly to your server. If your server-side code fails to validate the data it receives, problems can arise when improperly-formatted data is submitted (or data that is too large, is of the wrong type, and so forth).</p> </div> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> With a <code>datetime-local</code> input, the date value is always normalized to the format <code>YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm</code>.</p> </div></div></section><section aria-labelledby="examples"><h2 id="examples"><a href="#examples">Examples</a></h2><div class="section-content"></div></section><section aria-labelledby="basic_uses_of_datetime-local"><h3 id="basic_uses_of_datetime-local"><a href="#basic_uses_of_datetime-local">Basic uses of datetime-local</a></h3><div class="section-content"><p>The most basic use of <code>&lt;input type="datetime-local"&gt;</code> involves a basic <code>&lt;input&gt;</code> and <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/label"><code>&lt;label&gt;</code></a> element combination, as seen below:</p> <div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"><span class="language-name">html</span></div><pre class="brush: html notranslate"><code>&lt;form&gt; &lt;label for="party"&gt;Enter a date and time for your party booking:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="party" type="datetime-local" name="party-date" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre></div><div class="code-example"><div class="example-header"></div><iframe class="sample-code-frame" title="Basic uses of datetime-local sample" id="frame_basic_uses_of_datetime-local" width="600" height="60" src="about:blank" data-live-path="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/datetime-local" data-live-id="basic_uses_of_datetime-local" sandbox="allow-same-origin allow-scripts" loading="lazy"></iframe></div></div></section><section aria-labelledby="setting_maximum_and_minimum_dates_and_times"><h3 id="setting_maximum_and_minimum_dates_and_times"><a href="#setting_maximum_and_minimum_dates_and_times">Setting maximum and minimum dates and times</a></h3><div class="section-content"><p>You can use the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#min"><code>min</code></a> and <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#max"><code>max</code></a> attributes to restrict the dates/times that can be chosen by the user.
