    This is only possible since JSF 2.2. This feature is known as "passthrough elements".

    <html xmlns:jsf="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf">
...
<input type="date" jsf:value="#{bean.date}" />

    Alternatively, use "passthrough attributes".

    <html xmlns:a="http://xmlns.jcp.org/jsf/passthrough">
...
<h:inputText a:type="date" value="#{bean.date}" />

    In older JSF versions, use a custom component and/or renderer. You can find links to examples in Custom HTML tag attributes are not rendered by JSF.
