See here[^].

====== Further details ==========

Assign the date you got into javasciprt date.

var myDate = new Date('01/20/2010 12:00 AM');
myDate.format("mm/dd/yy");

That should do.

You're getting that from the db and need to turn it into a date ? If it's coming from the db, why not return month, day and year as seperate values and build a date from those ?

If you have a datetime type and you only want to store a date, the answer is to always use the same time, and ignore it in your UI code.

hi,

you can change format of the date in SQL as below

SQL

SELECT CONVERT(nvarchar(30),GETDATE(),101) AS ServerDate

here change the 3rd parameter value 100-114, you can get different formats.

SQL Server have several formats in CONVERT function & you can search google for details
