 The Advantages to Using type="email" and type="url"

 There are a few advantages to using these special INPUT types:

 * You can easily style all email INPUT elements with input[type=email]
 * You can easily style all url INPUT elements with input[type=url]
 * This INPUT type could be considered more semantically correct.
 * Mobile accessibility:  if your user is browsing with an iPhone and they
 arrive at a special email input, the iPhone will display a keyboard with
 the @ symbol provided on the primary screen.  If the INPUT is of type
 "url", the iPhone will display the ".com" button on the primary keyboard
 screen.
 * You can use the [http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui/#pseudo-validity css
