The next version of Simple Fields comes with support for some of the new input types available HTML5. These fields are great when you need your users to enter valid URLs, emails, dates or colors.

Take a look at this screenshot and you’ll get the hang of what’s possible:

Although support for these input types depends on the browser you use, Chrome already has support for all above.
