    I think the problem is that where they wanted op to write MM/DD/YYYY, op wrote a bunch of numbers instead.

      I’m so glad my country uses it by default, even in everyday situations. (Hungary)

        I got 6:54, it’s especially bad on a mobile browser

    Are you using a browser in a locale with a different date format? They might be using the default browser date parsing under the hood.

      It’s probably this. That would be a fun oversight, though.

    Honestly, unless you may be 17, no website should request your day and month of birth. It should only ask for month and day if you may be either 17 or 18, but preferably simply ask for age. They ask for too much information which may be used in identity theft or to hack into your accounts.

    There isn’t a 27th month, so it’s invalid. What’s the issue?

        Because you’re not reading it. The format says “MM/DD/YYYY”.
