Example
Let us see an example of Input DatetimeLocal step property −
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Input DatetimeLocal step</title>
<style>
form {
width:70%;
margin: 0 auto;
text-align: center;
}
* {
padding: 2px;
margin:5px;
}
input[type="button"] {
border-radius: 10px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Datetime-Local-step</legend>
<label for="datetimeLocalSelect">Local Date Time :
<input type="datetime-local" id="datetimeLocalSelect" step="2">
</label>
<input type="button" onclick="changeStep('10')" value="Step Seconds to 10">
<input type="button" onclick="changeStep('.10')" value="Step milliseconds to .10">
<div id="divDisplay"></div>
</fieldset>
</form>
<script>
var divDisplay = document.getElementById("divDisplay");
var inputDatetimeLocal = document.getElementById("datetimeLocalSelect");
function changeStep(myStep) {
inputDatetimeLocal.step = myStep;
if(inputDatetimeLocal.step.indexOf('.') === -1)
divDisplay.textContent = 'Seconds step: '+inputDatetimeLocal.step;
else
divDisplay.textContent = 'Milli-seconds step: '+inputDatetimeLocal.step;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>Output
This will produce the following output −
Clicking “Step Seconds to 10” button
Clicking “Step millseconds to .10” button −
