How do I get current date in JavaScript?

Answers

Hendrik s answer in the comments above will work but probably isn t what you are looking for. The format is not very usable.

I have been having the same issue and have come up with this through a lot of searching.

var today = new Date();
var dd = today.getDate();
var mm = today.getMonth()+1; //January is 0!
var yyyy = today.getFullYear();

if(dd<10) {
    dd= 0 +dd
} 

if(mm<10) {
    mm= 0 +mm
} 

today = mm+ / +dd+ / +yyyy;
document.write(today);
