If you're looking for "short" you might not like this, but my date extensions will definitely do it: http://www.depressedpress.com/Content/Development/JavaScript/Extensions/DP_D ateExtensions/Index.cfm There's a lot of functionality there and it's all open-source - if you want to streamline it you can easily just rip out all the methods you have no use for. The Date.prototype.dateFormat method sounds like it's all you'd need and this method should work just fine on its own. If you have a specific format in mind you can most likely make a much smaller function to do that, specifically - but it won't be as versatile of course.
