Is there a way to change input type="text" to "date" using CSS only?

I'd like to replace though CSS the type of an input from input type="text" to input type="date". Does it possible? Thanks

(Late for you, but could be useful for somebody else) I had to do the same for the mobile version of my website. I created 2 forms, one for big resolution screens and other for mobile. After the resolution becomes less than 600px width I hide the 1 form and display the 2nd (the second one is with changed types).

You may only change appearance of elements (not real type) by css3 appearance property. For example some text element into element button:

span
{
    -moz-appearance:button;
    -webkit-appearance:button;
    appearance:button;
}

But list of possible values is limited. Still not chance to change input type="text into input type="date".

No.

CSS is a presentation language. It cannot be used to alter the semantics and structure of a document.

The closest you could come would be to determine which if a file and date input were visible in the document.
