OK, thanks for the continuing help.
I'm generating the contents of this particular field in a DTML Document inside a <FORM> tag with this line (beginning and ending angle brackets removed to avoid rendering problems)::
input type="text" name="start_date" value=<dtml-var "(_.DateTime().strftime(:%b %d, %Y"))">
As I think I said in a previous note, but just for the sake of completeness, if I change tthat to use a textarea object instead of a text field, the date displays correctly. The text field is more than wide enough to accommodate the entire string.
Thanks for any suggestions. This one has me completely baffled.
