Try this:
var date = new Date(entry.publishedDate);
date = date.toDateString().substr(4);
That should be sufficient -- if the result of toDateString is
satisfactory. In most major browsers the above should give you e.g.
"May 25 2011", although with Opera the format may be different e.g.
"25 May 2011".
Alternatively:
var date = new Date(entry.publishedDate);
monthNames =
[ 'Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun',
'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec' ];
date =
monthNames[ date.getMonth() ] + ' ' +
date.getDate() + ' ' + date.getFullYear();
...
Others may suggest solutions involving a JS library or plugin.
For example, if you were using JQuery, you could try the format()
method provided in Marc Grabanski's beta "JQuery Date" plugin:
