Question

I want to display this on a webpage using jQuery…

Friday 12 August 2011

I have a div with an ID of date setup that I would like to print it into.

Jquery so far..

var newDate = new Date();
newDate.setDate(newDate.getDate() + 1);    
$('#Date').html((newDate.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + newDate.getDate() + '/' + newDate.getFullYear());

Can someone tell me how to format this correctly?

Answer 1

var monthNames = [ "January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
    "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December" ];
var dayNames= ["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"]

var newDate = new Date();
newDate.setDate(newDate.getDate() + 1);    
$('#Date').html(dayNames[newDate.getDay()] + " " + newDate.getDate() + ' ' + monthNames[newDate.getMonth()] + ' ' + newDate.getFullYear());
