Actually,
I just tried it out and it has to be the datePatternStrict version for
Struts 1.1
<var>
<var-name>datePatternStrict</var-name>
<var-value>dd/MM/yyyy</var-value>
</var>
The javascript functions have moved to commons and appear to now cater for
the datePattern variable - so probably from Struts 1.2 you could choose
which version.
(The difference between datePattern and datePatternStrict is that the data
input has to match the length of the format in the strict version. So if for
example 1/1/2004 would be invalid in strict version with a pattern of
dd/MM/yyyy - the user would have to key in 01/01/2004 for the date to be
valid.
