Hi!
Your question was clear. There's no such configuration symbol due to the
way way DateField defines which format to use, which is calling
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale).
A possibility is to create your own DateField class by copying the source
from the Tapestry one, customizing it to your needs and contributing it to
the ComponentOverride service. Something like this, not tested:
public static void contributeComponentOverride(MappedConfiguration<Class,
Class> configuration) {
configuration.add(DateField.class, YourDateField.class);
}
Doing this, Tapestry will use YourDateField instead of DateField when you
have a <t:datefield> or <input t:type="DateField">.
