    sysdate function

    I need a little javascript function that returns the date of today in the
    format dd/mm/yyyy
    example:
    September 2, 2003 ==> 02/09/2003

    For control reasons, it cannot be 2/9/2003 or 02/9/2003 or 2/09/2003 but
    only 02/09/2003

    December 14, 2003 ==> 14/12/2003

    Thanks

      Per the FAQ for this newsgroup, you should look here:
      http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-dates.htm


      You might also consider using the format 2003-12-14, if possible.

                  But he specifically requested a little function.

                  function LZ(x) {return(x<0||x> 9?"":"0")+x}

                  function formatDate(date ) {
                  with (date) return LZ(getDate())+'/'+LZ(getMonth() +1)+'/'+getFullYear()
                  }

                  document.write( formatDate(new Date()))

                      sorry, I don't like non-reusable code.
