Basic use
To use any MDL component, you must include the minified CSS and JavaScript files using standard relative-path references in the <head>
section of the page, as described in the MDL Introduction.
To include a MDL date textfield component:
1. Code a <div>
element to hold the date text field.
<div>
...
</div>
2. Inside the div, code an <input>
element add an id
attribute of your choice.
<div>
<input type="text" id="sample3">
</div>
3. Also inside the div, after the <input>
field, code a <label>
element with a for
attribute whose value matches the input
element's id
value, and a short string to be used as the field's placeholder text.
<div>
<input type="text" id="sample3">
<label for="sample3">Date Example...</label>
</div>
4. Add one or more MDL classes, separated by spaces, to the div container, input field, input label, and error message using the class
attribute.
<div class="mdl-date-textfield mdl-js-date-textfield mdl-date-textfield--floating-label">
<input class="mdl-date-textfield__input" type="text" id="sample3">
<label class="mdl-date-textfield__label" for="sample3">Date Example...</label>

The Date field component is ready for use.
