set input type

salut,

is there a way/hack to make input types of “email” instead of “text” as they are right now?

i tried editing the function input in /helpers/forms.php to
$defaults = array(‘type’ => ’email’, ‘name’ => (( ! is_array($data)) ? $data : ”), ‘value’ => $value);
but this doesn’t seem to do the trick ??

any other ideas?

tia,
markus.
