I've created date picker as a button,and when hovering it, it looks messy in chrome browser. may be the reason is only because of its default behavior in browsers but can I change that hover effect on chrome?

Image in Fire Fox:

Default <input type=date>

Image in Chrome:

Is there any way to remove that hover effect on chrome?

Try this, it will hide everything:

input#myInput::-webkit-calendar-picker-indicator { display: none }

input[type=date]::-webkit-inner-spin-button, 
input[type=date]::-webkit-outer-spin-button { 
  -webkit-appearance: none; 
  margin: 0; 
}
