  1. The JSON specification does not specify a format for exchanging dates which is why there are so many different ways to do it. JSON does not know anything about dates. What .NET does is a non-standard hack/extension. The problem with JSON date and really JavaScript in general – is that there’s no equivalent literal representation for dates. In JavaScript following Date constructor straight away converts the milliseconds since 1970 to Date as follows: var jsonDate = new Date(1297246301973); Then let’s convert it to js format: var date = new Date(parseInt(jsonDate.substr(6))); The substr() function takes out the /Date( part, and the parseInt() function gets the integer and ignores the )/ at the end. The resulting number is passed into the Date constructor .
