Hi guys! this is my first post there :)
I need help about a problem on jsp date formatting:
I use jakarta date-time library in order to format date:

Code:

<dt:format pattern="yyyy-MM-dd"><dt:currentTime/></dt:format>

I need the date formatted in that style when i write sql select:

Code:

<sql:param value="${param.selectedDate}"/>

how can I format currentTime / param.selectedDate and pas that as a parameter in sql?
I need smth like:

Code:

<c:choose>
 <c:when test="${empty param.selectedDate}">
   <sql:param value="${CURRENT DATE FORMATED "yyyy-MM-dd"}"/>
 </c:when>
 <c:otherwise>
  <sql:param value="${param.selectedDate FORMATED "yyyy-MM-dd"}"/>
 </c:otherwise>
</when>

Any idea?
Thanks in advance!
