If you require your app to have a consistent experience in older browsers, you will need an HTML5 polyfill (provided by CSS and/or JavaScript). There is definitely [no shortage of solutions for this](https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-Browser-Polyfills), although a couple of popular tools at the moment are [Modernizr](http://www.modernizr.com/) and [yepnope](http://yepnopejs.com/), which provide a simple way to add functionality based on the presence of detected HTML5 features. +IMPORTANT: The search, telephone, date, time, color, datetime, datetime-local, +month, week, URL, email, number and range inputs are HTML5 controls. +If you require your app to have a consistent experience in older browsers, +you will need an HTML5 polyfill (provided by CSS and/or JavaScript). +There is definitely [no shortage of solutions for this](https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-Browser-Polyfills), although a couple of popular tools at the moment are +[Modernizr](http://www.modernizr.com/) and [yepnope](http://yepnopejs.com/), +which provide a simple way to add functionality based on the presence of +detected HTML5 features. TIP: If you're using password input fields (for any purpose), you might want to configure your application to prevent those parameters from being logged. You can learn about this in the [Security Guide](security.html#logging). |
