How to Insert date in 'DD/MM/YYYY' format in oracle using stored procedure?

Question

Hi
How to Insert date in 'DD/MM/YYYY' format in oracle using stored procedure?
This is my Input data.
11/25/2007.
By using below query, it is inserted into database.
sql>Insert into tblname values(to_date('11/25/2007','MM/DD/YYYY'));
But using stored procedure, the same query is not running.
It shows error like
ORA-01843: not a valid month ORA-06512: at line 1
Procedure:
create or replace procedure Date_Test(datejoin in DATE) is
begin
insert into datetest values(to_date(datejoin,'MM/DD/YYYY'));
end Date_Test;
I had used 'nls_date_language = american' also.
Prcodeure is created but not worked in jsp. The same error is thrown.
Pls provide a solution
