How to convert a date 2011-08-13T10:38:27 in dd /mm/yy format using javascript

Question

I have a raw date appearing in the format 2011-08-13T10:38:27, I want this to be converted to the mm/dd/yy format using javascript and remove the extra values like time etc.

Is there any way to get the date in this format?

Thanks, Ronan

You can convert the date very simply to a Date object by calling

var date = new Date("2011-08-13T10:38:27");

Then output it using

var dateString = (date.getMonth()+1).toString() + '/' + date.getDate().toString() + '/' +  date.getFullYear().toString();

Please read the previous posts before posting a new question. Format date to MM/dd/yyyy in javascript

Thanks for the solution Man but when I do: var date = new Date(2011-08-13T10:38:27); I get the value of date as Sat Aug 13 2011 16:08:27 GMT+0530 and then when i perform date.tostring("mm/dd/yy"), its values turns out to be an invalid date :( – Feb 15 '13 at 06:40

+1 on parsing part... JavaScript does not support formatting strings - one need to construct it by hand or use some library for it. – Alexei Levenkov Feb 15 '13 at 06:41

use substr:

var dateyear="2011-08-13T10:38:27";
var year=dateyear.substr(0,dateyear.indexOf(-)-1);
var month=dateyear.substr(dateyear.indexOf(-)+1,dateyear.indexOf(-)+3)
var date=dateyear.substr(dateyear.indexOf(-)+4,dateyear.indexOf(-).length);

alert(month+"-"+date+"-"+year);

Try this function

function formatDate(dateparam) {
    var dateObj = new Date(Date.parse(dateparam));

    var date = dateObj.getDate();
    date = (date.toString().length == 1) ? "0" + date : date;

    var month = dateObj.getMonth();
    month++;
    month = (month.toString().length == 1) ? "0" + month : month;

    var year = dateObj.getFullYear();

    return month + "/" + date + "/" + year;
}

document.write(formatDate("2011-08-13 05:38:27"));
// returns 08/13/2011
