Add type="email" to email input

This may be an unnecessary question, I just want to know if there’s a way to change the type attribute of the commentform’s input tag, so intead of:

<input type="text" id="email" class="comment_email_input" size="25" name="email" value="">

It shows:

<input type="email" id="email" class="comment_email_input" size="25" name="email" value="">

I’ve been looking everywhere but couldn’t find anything yet, so I’m asking here.

Are you going for HTML5 draft? In current HTML4 and XHMTL there is no such value.

Anyhow, you could try rah_replace. Something like:

<txp:rah_replace from="<input type=""text""" to="<input type=""email""">
	<txp:comment_email_input />
</txp:rah_replace>

Yes I’m going for HTML5 (this was the last thing to do) and thank you!, that worked, now my site is fully HTML5 :P
