In addition to Craig's comment, if you decide to use the Jakarta Taglibs
project <http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs> , you can this on your JSP page.
<%@ taglib uri="http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/datetime-1.0" prefix="dt"
%>
<dt:format pattern="EEE MMM d, yyyy"><bean:write name="curForm"
property="startDateTime"/></dt:format>
In the above example my bean contain the following method
public long getStartDateTime() {
//
// return the Calender.getTime() component;
};
