Set width of native html5 date and time pickers on iOS devices - ios

Question

I'm using the native date and time pickers with type=date and type=time for the mobile version of a website I'm working on. The input fields are not respecting the css I have, though.
Desktop:
iOS devices:
Essentially I need the two date and time inputs to fill ~50% of the width. This is the html and css I'm using:
<div class="arriveWrapper">
<div class="arriveDateWrapper fieldWrapper">
<input class="arriveDate" name="arriveDate" type="date" placeholder="What date?" />
</div>
<div class="arriveTimeWrapper fieldWrapper">
<input class="arriveTime" name="arriveTime" type="time" placeholder="What time?" />
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
.arriveDateWrapper {
width: 49%;
margin-right: 2%;
float: left;
position: relative;
}
.arriveDate {
width: 100%;
height: 28px;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.arriveTimeWrapper {
width: 49%;
float: left;
}
.arriveTime {
width: 100%;
height: 28px;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
If anyone can tell me how to get the placeholders to show up when using the native date/time pickers that would be great, as well.
Thanks!

Answer 1

Just add this to your styles
.arriveDate, .arriveTime {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
}
The reason behind this is that IOS device render by default the inputs using the IOS buttons

Answer 2

To avoid losing any style elements applied to other input boxes, use textfield instead of none.
.arriveDate, .arriveTime {
-webkit-appearance: textfield;
-moz-appearance: textfield;
}
Also, if you just want to make all the date fields appear like textboxes but still work like date fields...
input[type="date"]
{
display:block;
-webkit-appearance: textfield;
-moz-appearance: textfield;
min-height: 1.2em;
}
