Please help me if you can.
I’m trying to set a textbox textmode=date from a variable.
It’s like this:
txtDataDespesa.Text = d.DataDespesa.ToShortDateString();
The problem is, when I go to visualize the page, the value of d.DataDespesa.ToShortDateString() isn’t showing in the txtDataDespesa, instead is the default values dd/mm/yyyy
Thanks in advance.

Method 1
This has nothing to do with asp.net, but Html5. When using type="date" you should always use the format yyyy-MM-dd (W3C standard)
The problem is that in browsers that don’t support type=date, this will show up as 2014-03-30, but on browsers that do support it, it is displayed according to the regional settings in the client OS.
So it may be 2014-03-30, 30.March.2014 or Mar-30-2014, you have no control over the format, the user has.
Method 2
afaik, the new textbox in .Net with textmode=date only supports the YYYY-MM-DD format.
txtDataDespesa.Text = d.DataDespesa.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
if you need the short date string, you need to use a regular textbox.
Method 3
dt_calculate_to_date.Text = DateTime.Today.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
will work and worked
