Can you post your code? adding type="date" to your <apex:input> should take care of the format.

| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:28 | comment | added | cropredy | You really should be using apex:inputField bound to an sobject field of type date; the VF page will only allow entry of valid date formats. Your apex controller code can be used to test for ranges. You can use 'proxy' sobjects in your controller if the user-entered date isn't intended to be saved as part of some DML operation. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:26 | comment | added | JJSHHS | I even tried hardcoding the date as '07/31/2015' just to see what would happen, but it always convert into Jul 31 2015 00:00:00 this format. | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:22 | comment | added | JJSHHS | @AAU - I'm getting the above problem when I use apex:inputfield tag. Hence, I had to use apex:input as an alternative but I'm asking in this forum if someone has run into this issue and if so, is there an acceptable workaround | |
| Aug 3, 2015 at 19:20 | comment | added | JJSHHS | @Prabhat - Right, that's what I tried in my controller code, string date1 = contact.Birthdate.format(); contact.Birthdate = date.parse(date1); return page.datePickerJS; but it's still not working. | |

any reason why you are not using <apex:inputField> tag?
