How to convert javascript string format to date

Question

In my ajax success I am getting result.Date as \"/Date(-2208967200000)/\". I need to check with the following date and proceed..<

Answer 1

Reference

var jsonDate = "/Date(-2208967200000)/";
var date = new Date(parseInt(jsonDate.substr(6)));
alert(date);

The substr function takes out the "/Date(" part, and the parseInt function gets the integer and ignores the ")/" at the end. The resulting number is passed into the Date constructor.

jQuery dateFormat is a separate plugin. You need to load that explicitly using a tag.
