@Narayana

 

The format you applied is not appropriate, format should be like this

txtfrmDate.text=DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy");

Answer 3

I think the issue is with browser compatibility, run your application in Internet Explorer (you will get the desired result).

Hi Amit,

 

  Debugging through break point .it's getting in text as 15-03-2017. but not dispalyed in output. i.e main problem. I can try so many times it's not working.

 

if plain textBox control then it dispaly but type="Date" in asp control it not dispaly .

@Narayana

 

Points to be consider in this case:

1. Put a breakpoint in the textbox and see what value is coming, is it the desired format?

2. Cross check that the value of textbox is not being changed on other part of code.
