Binding Date Attribute

[orusso]

Hi all!
i have the following problem:
in my jsp i have one date field that i need to make whriteble, here is what i have written:

<tr>
 <td colspan="2">RP Date</td>
 <td>
  <Spring:bind path="fxRate.fr_rpd_rp_date">
   <input type="text" name="fr_rpd_rp_date" size="10" value="${status.value}"/>
  </Spring:bind>
 </td>
 <td>
  <input type="button" value="Calendar" onclick="displayCalendar(fr_rpd_rp_date, 'yyyy-mm-dd',this)">
 </td>
</tr>
....
....
....
<tr>
 <td colspan="4">
  <input type="submit" name="add" value="+ Add +"/>
 </td>
</tr>

With this displayCalendar i can change this pre-defined field to yyyy-mm-dd too, but it seems that then the date in the form is not modified, and even onSubmit code from my controlles is not called:

public class FxRateFormController extends SimpleFormController {

    protected final Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());
    private FxRateService fxRateS;
    private FxRateTypeService fxRateTypeS;

    public FxRateService getFxRateS() {
        return fxRateS;
    }
    public void setFxRateS(FxRateService fxRateS) {
        this.fxRateS = fxRateS;
    }
    
    public FxRateTypeService getFxRateTypeS() {
      return fxRateTypeS;
	  }
	  public void setFxRateTypeS(FxRateTypeService fxRateTypeS) {
	      this.fxRateTypeS = fxRateTypeS;
	  }

    public ModelAndView onSubmit(HttpServletRequest request,
                                 HttpServletResponse response, Object cmd,
                                 BindException errors) throws Exception {
    	
    	FxRate fxRate = (FxRate) cmd;
      
      if (null != request.getParameter("delete")) {
          fxRateS.removeFxRate(fxRate);
          return this.getHomeFxRateTypePage(cmd);
          
      } else if (null != request.getParameter("update")) {
      	fxRate.setFr_user_modified(((UserWeb)request.getSession().
      			getAttribute(UserWeb.KEY)).getName());
      	fxRate.setFr_date_modified(new Date(new java.util.Date().getTime()));
      	fxRateS.updateFxRate(fxRate);
      	return this.getHomeFxRateTypePage(cmd);
      	
      } else if (null != request.getParameter("add")) {
      	xRate.setFr_date_created(new Date(new java.util.Date().getTime()));
      	fxRate.setFr_user_created(((UserWeb)request.getSession().
      			getAttribute(UserWeb.KEY)).getName());
      	fxRate.setFr_date_modified(null);
      	fxRate.setFr_user_modified(null);
      	fxRateS.insertFxRate(fxRate);
      	return this.getHomeFxRateTypePage(cmd);
      }
      return new ModelAndView(new RedirectView(getSuccessView()));
    }
    
	protected ModelAndView getHomeFxRateTypePage(Object cmd){
	    List data = new ArrayList();
	    FxRateType type = new FxRateType();	    
	    FxRate fxRate = (FxRate) cmd;
	    
	    int id = fxRate.getFr_frt_id().intValue();
  		type = fxRateTypeS.findFxRateTypeById(id);
	  	data.add(0, type);
	  	data.addAll(1, fxRateS.findFxRatesByFxRateTypeId(id));
	    return new ModelAndView("fxRate/FxRates", "data", data);
    }

      protected Object formBackingObject(HttpServletRequest request) throws
            ServletException {

	request.setAttribute("orderedBy","date_created");
    	
    	String id = request.getParameter("fr_id");    	
    	if (null != id && !id.equals("")) {
    		FxRate answer = fxRateS.findFxRateById(Integer.parseInt(id));
    		return answer;
    	}
    	
    	String frt_id = request.getParameter("frt_id");
    	if (null != frt_id && !frt_id.equals("")) {
    		FxRate answer = new FxRate();
    		answer.setFr_frt_id(Integer.parseInt(frt_id));
    		answer.setFr_rpd_rp_date(fxRateS.getLastReportDay());
    		return answer;
    	} 
    	return new FxRate();
    }
		
	protected Map referenceData(HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
		String fr_id = request.getParameter("fr_id");
		String frt_id = request.getParameter("frt_id");
	
    	if ( (null != fr_id && !fr_id.equals("")) || (null != frt_id && !frt_id.equals("")) ) {
    		Map<String, List> reference = new HashMap<String, List>();				reference.put("types", fxRateTypeS.getAllFxRateTypes());
	  	return reference;
    	}
    	else return null;
}

i would very apprishiate any help!

Resuming: i am sure that the onSubmit is not called because spring do not undersand my code, failing somewhere on validation... how can i bind one text field with Date date?
thks
