Convert a date format from "Jun 25 2014" to 06/25/2014 Using Javascript

Question

I have tried the following, but the output is not as expected.

title = "Jun 25 2014";
var n = new Date(title);
var dateformat = n.toLocaleDateString();

Use below code to get your output

var title = "Jun 25 2014";
var n = new Date(title);

if(n.getMonth()+1 < 10)
    var month = '0'+(n.getMonth()+1);
var date = month+'/'+n.getDate()+'/'+n.getFullYear();
alert(date);
