Message #1 by Gui You <guiyou01@y...> on Thu, 13 Feb 2003 21:18:47 -0800 (PST)
Hi all,

I am writing the ASP, but I need to use Javascript for comparing date displaying. I want to know how to display date in format
MM/DD/YYYY ( I can use this format getting the date in ASP). Thank you for your help in advance.

HI,

Hope this will help you!!!

<script language="JavaScript">
function makeArray(n){
  this.length = n;
  for (i=1;i<=n;i++){
    this[i]=0;
  }
  return this;
}

function makeArrayDay(j){
  this.length = j;
  for (k=1;k<=j;k++){
    this[k]=0;
  }
  return this;
}

function displayDate() {
    var this_month = new makeArray(12);
    this_month[0]  = "January";
    this_month[1]  = "February";
    this_month[2]  = "March";
    this_month[3]  = "April";
    this_month[4]  = "May";
    this_month[5]  = "June";
    this_month[6]  = "July";
    this_month[7]  = "August";
    this_month[8]  = "September";
    this_month[9]  = "October";
    this_month[10] = "November";
    this_month[11] = "December";

    var this_getDay = new makeArrayDay(7);
    this_getDay[0]  = "Sunday";
    this_getDay[1]  = "Monday";
    this_getDay[2]  = "Tuesday";
    this_getDay[3]  = "Wednesday";
    this_getDay[4]  = "Thusday";
    this_getDay[5]  = "Friday";
    this_getDay[6]  = "Saturday";

 var today = new Date();
 var day   = today.getDate();
 var month = today.getMonth();
 var year  = today.getYear();
 var getDay = today.getDay();
 if (year < 100){
  year += 1900;
 }
  return(this_getDay[getDay]+", "+this_month[month]+" "+day+", "+year);
}
</script>

// to display use this code

  <script language="JavaScript">
  <!--
   document.write (displayDate());
  //-->
  </script>

You could also set the date with VB script on an .asp page llike
this...
 

<% LANGUAGE=VBScript %>
<% strcurrentdate = day(date) & "/" & month(date) & "/" & year(date)
%>
<% Response.Write strcurrentdate %>
