Try something like below

  1. if the html version used is html5, then try this
      <input type="date" name="from">
      <input type="date" name="to">
  2. or change the date format in php like
       <?php
           date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Calcutta');
           $date = new DateTime('2018-01-31');
           $new_date = $date->format('d/m/Y');
           echo $new_date;
       ?>

That won't work. `date()` doesn't take a date string as second argument, it takes a timestamp. Plus, the OP hasn't shown _any_ attempt at all in the question so, in my opinion, it shouldn't even be answered. – M. Eriksson May 27 '18 at 21:21
