You should be able to specify your date format using the translator
binding prefix.
e.g.
<component id="..." type="TextField">
<binding name="translator" value="translator:date,pattern=yyyy-mm-dd"/>
</component>
The translator binding prefix has some unfortunate syntax limitations.
If your date pattern contains problematic characters (e.g. a comma) then
it will choke. If this is the case, define your translator as a bean.
e.g.
<bean name="dateTranslator"
class="org.apache.tapestry.form.translator.DateTranslator">
<set name="pattern" value="literal:yyyy-mm-dd"/>
</bean>
<component id="..." type="TextField">
<binding name="translator" value="bean:dateTranslator"/>
</component>
