One of the best things about HTML5 forms is that we can use almost all of these new input types and attributes right now. They don’t even need any shivs, hacks, or workarounds. That isn’t to say they’re all “supported” right now, but they do cool things in latest browsers that do support them-and degrade gracefully in browsers that don’t understand them.

There are the some input types in HTML5. In these input types, few are directly connected to be displayed in the web browser, where remain are more useful for there semantic value and/or connected to validation of them.
