DatePicker ignores format parameter
-----------------------------------

         Key: TAPESTRY-367
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-367
     Project: Tapestry
        Type: Bug
  Components: Framework  
    Versions: 4.0    
 Environment: Tapestry 4.0-beta-2-snapshot and 4.0-beta-1
    Reporter: Paul Green


The DatePicker does not use the format parameter to format the date as 
specified.

code patch (starting at line 118):

        DateTranslator translator = (DateTranslator) getTranslator();
        Locale locale = getPage().getLocale();
        SimpleDateFormat format = translator.getDateFormat(locale);

with:

        DateTranslator translator = (DateTranslator) getTranslator();
        if (!(getFormat() == null || getFormat().equals(""))) {
                translator.setPattern(getFormat());
        }
        Locale locale = getPage().getLocale();
        SimpleDateFormat format = translator.getDateFormat(locale);

i.e. add :

        if (!(getFormat() == null || getFormat().equals(""))) {
                translator.setPattern(getFormat());
        }

I am not sure whether this is the correct approach but it works, and I am not 
sure of the affect this will have on the new validation system where a 
translator is specified.

The problem I was having was that I was specifying a format="'dd/MM/yyyy'" but 
it was always coming out as MM/dd/yyyy even though the browser and locale when 
tested in java code was reading en-gb, this should be overridden by format 
anyway.
