I found a simple solution, you can't give a specific format, but you can customize it as follows.

HTML code:

CSS code:

#dt{text-indent: -500px;height:25px; width:200px;}

Javascript code:

function mydate()
{
  //alert("");
document.getElementById("dt").hidden=false;
document.getElementById("ndt").hidden=true;
}
function mydate1()
{
 d=new Date(document.getElementById("dt").value);
dt=d.getDate();
mn=d.getMonth();
mn++;
yy=d.getFullYear();
document.getElementById("ndt").value=dt+"/"+mn+"/"+yy
document.getElementById("ndt").hidden=false;
document.getElementById("dt").hidden=true;
}

Output:
