Hello I'm a former ASP web programmer.  In ASP there is a function called cdate().  The CDate function converts any valid date and time expression to the variant of subtype DATE.

For example:

<% anydate = "June 26, 1943" %>
<% =CDate(anydate) %>

Would output:

6/26/43

It basically converted all imaginable date formats into one standard format.
Does anyone know of a function similar to this is JSP/Java??????

Thank you for your time!
