I would like to convert a Javascript date format to ASP.NET date format.

2012-09-10 12:00PM to /Date(1347442050050-0700)/

Because I'm passing it back to the server. I got the ASP.NET format from the request I did on the server, then convert it to Javascript date using moment.js:

moment("/Date(1347442050050-0700)/").format("YYYY-MM-DD hh:mmA");

Is there a way to do this?

• javascript
• asp
• momentjs

• Do you want asp => js or js => asp? – mornaner Commented Sep 12, 2012 at 10:08

I got what i need. If this is somehow wrong please ment.

var test = moment("2012-09-10 12:00PM").valueOf();
var test2 = moment("2012-09-10 12:00PM").format("ZZ");

var test1 = "/Date("+test+test2+")/";

alert( test1 ); // returns /Date(1347206400000+0800)/

var string = moment(test1).format("YYYY-MM-DD hh:mmA");

alert( string );​ // returns 2012-09-10 12:00PM

You can add the function to the moment prototype so that it's a little more portable.

http://jsfiddle/timrwood/qe8pk/

moment.fn.toASP = function () {
    return '/Date(' + (+this) + this.format('ZZ') + ')';
}

If you want to send a date back to an ASP.NET ASMX web service where the RPC method receives a DateTime object, this may be helpful: https://stackoverflow./a/12973157/1145963
