I have already download and install this package to support HTML5 input type
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2468871
The following is code in my page
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head runat="server">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<input id="testEmail" type="email" />
</div>
<div>
</div>
<asp:TextBox ID="testEmailAsp" runat="server" type="email"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="testUrlAsp" runat="server" type="url"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="textBoxTest" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
This code is generated when running in visual studion 2010
<input name="testEmailAsp" type="text" id="testEmailAsp" type="email" />
<input name="testUrlAsp" type="text" id="testUrlAsp" type="url" />
<input name="textBoxTest" type="text" id="textBoxTest" />
<input type="submit" name="Button1" value="Button" id="Button1" />
When publish to the server. it renders like this.
<input name="testEmailAsp" type="text" id="testEmailAsp" type="email" />
<input name="testUrlAsp" type="text" id="testUrlAsp" type="url" />
<input name="textBoxTest" type="text" id="textBoxTest" />
<input type="submit" name="Button1" value="Button" id="Button1" />
As you can see. it render type 2 time so the markup is incorrect and that make the input type keyboard on mobile not work.
I have to install that on the server as well, i don’t know that
