hi i want to display the date in MM/dd/yyyy format but it is showing '-' instead of '/'

$(function () {
var isFirefox = typeof InstallTrigger !== 'undefined';

if (isFirefox)
{
    $('#DateOfBooking').val('@DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")');
}
else
{
    $('#DateOfBooking').val('@DateTime.Now.ToString("MM-dd-yyyy")');
}});

Even if i open it in firefox it showing me date in MM-dd-yyyy format

Why the C# tag? It was removed for a reason. – Equalsk Jan 04 '18 at 11:47

@Equalsk Because of `'@DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")'` – Andreas Jan 04 '18 at 11:48
if you are using this code cshtml then try searching solution for date format conversion in C# instead of jQuery. – arpan desai Jan 04 '18 at 11:50
@Andreas I want to learn why this is considered C# but I don't know the keyword to search for when researching. Is this something specific to MVC? Does calling a C# function inside jQuery like this have a name? – Equalsk Jan 04 '18 at 11:54

@Andreas Much appreciated, thank you. – Equalsk Jan 04 '18 at 12:03
