Hello,

in my Controller, json result returns start date as 04/04/2017 but when I print start date in AJAX call return in view it displays as

/Date(1488133800000)/

I manipulated start date as below but it prints 4/4/2017.I need to print 04/04/2017.

how can I do that?

$.ajax({
url: '@Url.Action("JobsServiceProviderC", "PostWork")',
type: "Post",
dataType: "json",
data: { KeywordSearch: strKeywordSearch },
success: function (data) {
$("#tblJobs > tbody").html("");
if (data.data.length > 0) {
for (var i = 0; i < data.data.length; i++) {
tr = $('<tr/>');
var SDate = new Date(eval('new' + data.data[i].StartDate.replace(/\//g, ' ')));
var formattedSDate = SDate.getMonth() + 1 + '/' + SDate.getDate() + '/' + SDate.getFullYear();
<pre>$('#tblJobs > tbody').append(tr);
}},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
 $(".loading").css("display", "none");
}
});

Thanks

What I have tried:

var SDate = new Date(eval('new' + data.data[i].StartDate.replace(/\//g, ' ')));
                        var formattedSDate = SDate.getMonth() + 1 + '/' + SDate.getDate() + '/' + SDate.getFullYear();

tr.append("<td>" + formattedSDate + "</td>");

That's not going to work in Javascript.

Richard is right. it will not work in javascript especially when return format is json result.

Solution 2

try

var str = '4/4/2017';
  var parts = str.split('/');
  var month = ('0' + parts[0]).slice(-2);
  var day = ('0' + parts[1]).slice(-2);
  var year = parts[2];
  var result = month + '/' + day + '/' + year;

Hello Karthik,
We can do like your solution but that is the not way to concate 0 as prefix. it is better if we can do it with date function.

Karthik_Mahalingam 5-Apr-17 1:23am

through date function it is not possible, you will have to use external library.
what is the isssue in this.

kkakadiya 5-Apr-17 1:25am

I mean From date function is to go with some generic way.
Issue is nothing with your solution, I have just tried with it and it works for me.

Karthik_Mahalingam 5-Apr-17 1:36am

you shall make it as function and add a prototype to the date time object.
if it works, pls close this post.

Thanks Karthik,
I have done the same. made generic function calling from anywhere from the project and it works perfect.
