Date Format from Calendar in Grid

[Gopre400Participant]

Hi, I am using a jqxcalendar in a grid and passing the data to WebService via .ajax. However the date format returned from the calendar is not recognized as a valid Date in VB.net.

This is what is being returned from jqxCalendar…”Thu Jun 26 2014 00:00:00 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time)”

Is there a way to convert this to a different format?

Hi Gopre400,

The Calendar/DateTimeInput returns a JavaScript Date Object – http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_obj_date.asp. What you pasted here is the result of your Date object’s toString() method call. If you want to format a JavaScript Date object in a format of your choice, you can use the dataAdapter’s formatDate method.

Thank you Peter!

Here is what I did, which worked great.

updaterow: function (rowid, rowdata, commit) {
var sdate = dataAdapter.formatDate(rowdata.ScheduledDate, ‘D’);
$.ajax({
type: “POST”,
url: “CSWebService.asmx/UpdateCSProject”,
contentType: “application/json; charset=utf-8”,
dataType: “json”,
data: ‘{“projectid”:”‘ + rowdata.ProjectID + ‘”,”roadname”:”‘ + rowdata.RoadName + ‘”,”roadnumber”:”‘ + rowdata.RoadNumber + ‘”,”fromdesc”:”‘ + rowdata.FromDesc + ‘”,”todesc”:”‘ + rowdata.ToDesc + ‘”,”frommp”:”‘ + rowdata.FromMP + ‘”,”tomp”:”‘ + rowdata.ToMP + ‘”,”projstatus”:”‘ + rowdata.ProjectStatus + ‘”,”sdate”:”‘ + sdate + ‘”}’,
success: function (data) {
commit(true);
GetItems()
}
});
},
