Date Only part of a date/time - how?

I want : 12/12/2010 *not* 12/12/2010 12:00 AM

Am doing a bit of JavaScript:

ThisEndDate = @Adjust(ThisStartDate, 0, 0, 13, 0, 0, 0);
ThisEndDate = ThisEndDate.getDateOnly();

But I get an error and have not despite a few hours been able to figure out how to make both it and me happy: "[TypeError] Error calling method 'getDateOnly()' on an object of type 'Date [JavaScript Object]'"

Any help appreciated.

Re: Date Only part of a date/time - how?

Try replacing your second line with:

ThisEndDate = ThisEndDate.toDateString();

toDateString() is the javascript method to return just the date formatted as a string.

If the format's not exactly right, you can use other methods of the javascript date object. There's a list of them here: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_obj_date.asp
