I have this date 2015/08/06 06:00 and i want to convert it to 6th August 2015 at 6am. I know how to do this in php but having trouble with jquery.
var monthNames = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
"July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"
];
var d = new Date('2015/08/06 06:00');
var d_formatted = d.getDate() + '/' + monthNames[d.getMonth()] '/' + d.getFullYear();
How do i get the date suffix and the time?
Try this code, i have Fiddled your needs http://jsfiddle.net/j6tb81qy/
function DateFormat(arg)
{
var monthNames = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
"July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"];
var Dates;
if(arg.getDate()==1)
Dates =arg.getDate() + 'st';
if(arg.getDate()==2)
Dates =arg.getDate() + 'nd';
if(arg.getDate()== 3)
Dates =arg.getDate() + ' rd';
if(arg.getDate()> 3)
Dates = arg.getDate() +'th'
var hours ='';
console.log(Dates)
hours = arg.getHours();
if(arg.getHours() >12)
{
hours = (arg.getHours() %12)+ ' PM'
}
else
{
hours =arg.getHours()+ ' AM'
}
Dates = Dates + ' ' + monthNames[arg.getMonth()] +' ' + arg.getFullYear().toString() + ' at ' + hours.toString();
return Dates;
}
var d = new Date();
var val= DateFormat(d);
alert(val);
//6th August 2015 at 6am
I prefer to use moment.js to do this
$(function () {
$('.date').each(function (index, dateElem) {
var $dateElem = $(dateElem);
var formatted = moment($dateElem.text(), 'MM-DD-YYYY').format('MMMM D');
$dateElem.text(formatted);
})
});
Using pure javascript:
var d = new Date();
var n = d.toString();
The result of n will be:
Thu Aug 06 2015 12:52:33 GMT-0300 (BRT)
GMT-0300 (BRT)?
n.slice(0,-15)With Date object, there are couple of methods to retrieve time:-
getHours() and getUTCHours()getMinutes() and getUTCMinutes()getSeconds() and getUTCSeconds()getMilliseconds() and getUTCMilliseconds()References: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date#Methods
