Ici, il me semble que "format de date invalide" a le même sens que "doit contenir un format de date valide", puisque le message d'erreur a pour objectif d'indiquer à l'utilisateur qu'il a utilisé un mauvais format. Donc : blanc bonnet et bonnet blanc.

I got stuck on the last part: This is the error that would result if the user enters the date \"in an invalid format\".

Saisir la date dans le format MM/DD/YYYY

Another way of putting it, which you see on many websites.

US and Canada as well (I presume) use MM/DD/YYYY, whereas UK and Irl English uses DD/MM/YYYY.
