Here are some functions I use to extract display a date as Long Month, day
and Full year. (October 20, 2000). Feel free to modify as needed to obtain
your desried result
function GetLongDate()
{
var sLongDate = new String("")
var dDate = new Date
sLongDate = (GetLongMonth(dDate.getMonth())) + " " + dDate.getDate()
+ ", " + dDate.getFullYear()
return(sLongDate)
}
function GetLongMonth(index)
{
var MonthString=new
String("January@@@February@@March@@@@@April@@@@@May@@@@@@@June@@@@@@July@@@@
@@August@@@@September@O...@@@November@@December@@");
var LongMonth = new String("");
var LookupIndex;
//
// Calculate the string position to extract the ten letter month
//
index++ // bump up the index counter to use base one
LookupIndex = ((index * 10) - 10)
LongMonth = MonthString.substr(LookupIndex,10)
//
// Now Strip out the trailing '@' characters
//
LongMonth = LongMonth.substr(0,LongMonth.indexOf('@'))
return (LongMonth)
}
