title: ExtJS DateField using different display format
body: <p>I'm using a <a href="http://extjs.com" rel="noreferrer">ExtJS</a> <a href="http://extjs.com/deploy/ext/docs/output/Ext.form.DateField.html" rel="noreferrer">DateField</a> control in an ASP.NET MVC web application.</p>
  
  <p>I've set <code>format</code> property to "Y-m-d", so that it'll correctly parse the "2009-08-11" format from the server, and will also send it back in that format.</p>
  
  <p>However, I'd like to display the data in a different, more user-friendly, format, particularly "d mmm yyyy" in Spanish.</p>
  
  <p>I can't seem figure out how to do this. I don't think the <code>altFormats</code> property is of help, since that just adds more parse formats.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to use a different parse format from display format? Or am I going about this the wrong way?</p>
