You should not use mStepScaleFactor but GetStepScaleFactor(). To prevent calling the method everywhere you could only use it when calling |return|: |return step * GetStepScaleFactor();|.

I wonder why you only need this here. I would tend to think we should use that for ::ApplyStep() too. Maybe whenever GetStep() is called? Could you check that?

I don't want to add that kind of stuff in nsHTMLInputElement.
Could you instead add in another bug/patch, the following methods:
NS_euclidGcd()
and
NS_lcm()
You could add those to:
xpcom/ds/nsMathUtils.h
And update layout/style/nsStyleAnimation.cpp to use them.

I would prefer a getter:
GetStepScaleFactor() so that way we don't have to update the variable each time there is a type change. It's less error-prone and isn't performance critical so we can take the small overhead.

It makes sense to do that and the specs do the same but we need to do something because Chrome and Opera don't do that. Maybe we should just send an email to the list or file a bug to their bug trackers.

Do you have a test where you are above the max value and clamp to the max value while calling stepDown() even if stepDown() should put you above the max value?

According to the specs, http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#dom-input-stepup, ApplyStep just has to do step*stepScaleFactor +- value, then convert this number to a string according to the current input type. Which means that if stepUp/Down is going to return a timestamp that does not correspond to a date whose time is on midnight UTC, the value will just be rounded down to the date on midnight UTC. And this value might suffer from a step mismatch.

Hum if min="2008-02-27" low shouldn't be "2008-02-25", it should be -27, and high -29.
I added this test and an other one for non leap years.

From what I saw, chromium and opera are rounding all step values to an integer. This behavior can make sense, I don't really see the use cases in having a step precision that goes beyond 1 day, for an input type that can only represents dates and not time. But this is a broader issue than just the validation message, for example it will also change the stepUp/down behavior : if step = 0.5, stepUp(2) will add two days, because step will be changed to 1 (chromium+opera behavior), while now, stepUp(2) only adds 1 day (spec+this patch behavior).

Because the min value stays the same when we change the input type, it's reused for the next test (number), this was not the ideal place to do that though, I moved it to the start of the loop.

We spoke with Raphael : we want stepUp() and stepDown() to go to the new valid value. We already do that for <input type='number'>.

This patch implement the following behavior for stepUp(n)/stepDown(n):
If applying value += step*n returns a value that is not a date, (i.e. a timestamp not corresponding to a date whose time is set on midnight UTC), then we return the next valid date that is not in step mismatch.
For example with <input type='date' min='2012-08-17' step='1.5' value='2012-08-18'> stepUp() will return "2012-08-20".
I filed Bug 783607 for the precision issue.
