Give your input field an ID:

<input type="date" name="date" id="your-id">

and than you can just do

<script>
    document.getElementById("your-id").value = Date().toString();
</script>`

Without giving it an ID you would have to do

document.getElementsByName("date")[0].value

but you have to be sure there is only one input with name date

Javascript will help you to fill up the date.

<input  type="date" name="date" id="date">  
<script type="text/javascript">  
    document.getElementById("date").value = Date().toString();  
</script>
