html:text for Date property

What is the best way to deal with a Date property in an ActionForm?  My 
ActionForm has a object that has a Date property that I want to set.

So I have

<html:text property="object.date">

If I populate the that property in the Action like this:

MyObject obj = new MyObject();
obj.setDate(new Date());
form.setObject(obj);

The html:text tag does a toString() on the object.date property.  How 
can I get it to display in the MM/DD/YYYY format instead?  Likewise, how 
do I make it so the user can enter a date in the format of MM/DD/YYYY 
and have it correctly set the Date property?
