Yeah, I had a suspicion that this was related but I wasn't sure I wanted to switch on the time format for the entire site. For instance - some users might only type in the short date version - some others the long one. I'm not sure how to address this.

It looks like because the DateConverter code uses DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale);, if you dig into this method, it uses time style "FULL", which is documented like this: "3:30:42pm PST". Try using that for your date. If that works, than the problem is just that it expects a much longer version of the time. If that's the case, just override the converter for java.util.Date (I know you know how to do this ;) and you could put a new DateConverter, and override this method to return whatever you want. For instance you could do DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(foo, bar, foo, bar) /** * @param locale * @return Returns the date format. */ public DateFormat getDateFormat(Locale locale) { if (locale == null) { locale = Locale.getDefault(); } return DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale); } On Mon, Jun 2, 2008 at 4:53 PM, Michael Mehrle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a text field that is backed by a java.util.Date model.
