RadDateInput Javascript Error

[David]

I would like to use the RadDateInput in such a way that it only displays the short month followed by the full year, but only requires the entry of the month number and the short year. For example, a user can input 4/12 and it will display Apr 2012.

If I do something like:

<telerik:radDateInput ID="DateInput2"
runat="server"
DisplayDateFormat="MMM yyyy"
DateFormat="MM/yy">
</telerik:radDateInput>

it throws an error in Javascript "SCRIPT5007: Unable to get value of the property 'Month': object is null or undefined"

Adding a 'd' somewhere into the DateFormat but keeping the 'MM/yy' first so that it reads something l ike 'MM/yy/d' will work how I want, however, if a user needs to edit a date, clicking into the field changes the text to 04/2012/[today's day number] which is confusing since the only data that is relevant in the field is month and year.

I find that this error actually gets thrown if you ever omit anything from the DateFormat; having only day and year, only day and month, or only month and year will cause this error to be thrown. Is there any way around this? Or is that a limitation based on the current design of the control?
