this can be very complex. I agree that any input form should be 
accepted, the display should change after lost focus to the configured one.
To prevent writing an own parser i now try to use Ext.util therefore. 
When ExtJs is included anyway it's a big help.

But the problem with USmode will be:
you enter 01/04/98
could be 01.04.1998 or 04.01.1998, so how to differ? However the format 
is given it should be printed in the form like
(dd/mm/yy) to help the editor for input. Having the date picker 
simplifies it anyway.
