How to convert Date format in Javascript

Question

I want to change date format sequence from yy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yy

How can I do it in Javascript ?

I have tried

var now = new Date();

now.format("mm-dd-yy");

But its not working for me

Answer 1

Here is a clear and simple approach

var now = new Date();     
var dd = now.getDate();    //returns date
var mm = now.getMonth()+ 1; //returns month and you need to add1 because it is array
var yy = now.getFullYear(); //returns full year 
var st = dd + '-' + mm  + "-" + yy;  //format as string

Answer 2

var dateFormatted = (now.getMonth()+1)+"-"+now.getDate()+"-"+now.getFullYear();

Answer 3

You can use the below mentioned function to format Date

utilities.FormatDate(new Date(),"GMT", "dd/MM/yyyy")

Answer 4

function dateformat(date)
{
  var yourdate = new Date(date);
 yourdate = yourdate.getDate() + '-' + yourdate.getMonth() +1 + "-"  +yourdate.getFullYear();
}

use - or / as you like
