Hi ,

 I have a servlet in which I connect through a mysql driver to the
database. The servlet has a string that represents the date in the
format 'MM/DD/YY'.

 When I am trying to insert this date, I get sometimes the correct date,
sometimes I get the '0000-00-00'.

Here is the code:
 String sql_1 =  "INSERT INTO bookmgr.copy (bookid, emp_purchaser,
date_expensed, emp_holder) VALUES (?,?,?,?)";
 ps = myConnection.prepareStatement(sql_1);     
                        // inserting records
                        ps.setInt(1, bookid);
                        ps.setInt(2, userId);
                        ps.setString(3, expensed_date);
                        ps.setInt(4, userId);
                        ps.executeUpdate();

 I understand that this particular date '0000-00-00' comes up when you
have an invalid date. But I am checking that I get the correct date in
the servlet from the jsp (which comes from  a calendar)  and again,
sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

 Thanks for any help,
 Catalina
