Depending on your browser, a normal HTML5 `<input type="date">` (which is what the ERB above creates) will generate a fancy picker, or it may produce a thing that looks like a text field, but behaves differently from one. Regardless how it appears, a "date" input will only accept ISO-formatted dates as its value. Change your value= to '2015-08-01' and it may appear as you expect.
