As you asked earlier in the thread, I use a js calendar to enter
some dates on one site, which makes the formatting easy.  However,
this is on an intranet, and thus, browser compatibility is not an
issue.

If you are interested, this is a pretty slick script:

If it were me, I would use drop downs to force the correct
format of each part of the date and then combine it for a single
value as Rene suggested ...
