While we're on this subject... Tapestry's built-in DateTranslator uses
a lenient DateFormat, one of my pet peeves. When a user enters a date
like 03/44/2005 it's probably an error... I don't want it silently
converted to 04/13/2005.
I could override the DateTranslator's behavior in code, add a

Thanks guys. Now I can get rid of my custom MaxDate validator class!

Thanks for this, I can now get rid of my custom MinDate validator class!

Hi!
Here is how I solved my tweak #1 (specifying a date (at the beginning of
the day) as a default value).
I implemented my own TypeConverter:
public class IntToDateConverter implements TypeConverter {

Hi Martin,
Sorry, looks like I wasn't looking closely enough at what you wanted to do.

or before {1,minDate,MMM/dd/}">
Try instead:
Note that the 1,date,MM/dd/
Hi!
Thanks both for your feedback. I successfully solved my tweak 1 (will
post another message for explaining how today).

That'd be nice if I could do that. I used:

class, then it should display the date in the standard short format.
You should also be able to specify a custom format:

It's certainly possible to do those things with code, although that
approach seems to be falling out of fashion these days. :-)
#1. Write a utility method to call instead of java.util.Date(). What I
use:
public static Date today() {
return org.apache.commons.lang.time.DateUtils.trun
