Convert and Read JSON date type in Javascript

Question

I have a date in the form of:

"2012-10-11T00:00:00"

The date is returned from a ASP.NET Webservice as part of a JOSN object. How can I convert this date format to a Javascript date object and also write the date as follows to the screen:

11/10/2012

Thanks

`what = new Date("2012-10-11T00:00:00")` is insufficient for getting the Date object you want? — abathur, Jan 02 '13 at 17:20

var myDate = new Date("2012-10-11T00:00:00".replace(/T/," "));
var myDateString = myDate.getDate() + "/" + (myDate.getMonth() + 1) + "/" + myDate.getFullYear()

For date conversions I use a plugin

date.js

Be sure to include all the jquery files needed, there is plenty of documentation on how to implement this

If you do not want to use a plugin check this out http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/ff743760(v=vs.94).aspx

I prefer a single command than using a plugin just for that. But I will take a look – Liron Harel Jan 02 '13 at 17:14
