How to format a JSON date?

I have an HTML page that uses JQuery. My JQuery hits a .NET Web Service that does the following:

return DateTime.UtcNow;

An example value returned looks like the following:

"/Date(-62135578800000)/"

In my JavaScript, I'm try to parse the date as follows:

var lastOrderDate = GetValueFromService();
var d = new Date(parseInt(lastOrderDate));
alert(d);

When the alert statement is hit, I see "Invalid Date" in the alert window. What am I doing wrong?

That post doesn't seem to address my issue. Can't figure out what's different. – JQuery Mobile Jan 07 '13 at 19:52
@JQueryMobile the answer calls `substr(6)` to remove the `/Date(` portion, should solve your problem. – Snuffleupagus Jan 07 '13 at 19:55

That seems strange because you get negative value. Maybe there is overflow? – Hamlet Hakobyan Jan 07 '13 at 19:59

You probably is sending the DateTime default value (01/01/0001) to the javascript. – MaltMaster Jan 07 '13 at 20:09
