Question

I’m using jqgrid and have columns that display date but from the server the date comes in json format as below,

"CommentedDate": "\/Date(1304324941000+0530)\/"

How I can display the date correctly in MM/dd/yyyy format?

If you use predefined formatter 'date' and jqGrid 4.0 it should work automatically. Try for example with the following properties for the column having the date:

formatter:'date', formatoptions: {newformat:'m/d/Y'}
