Working on a weather app that includes a 5 day forecast and I would like the dates displayed. I cant figure out how to format it to just month, date and year (ex: July 23rd 2020) which should be ‘ll’. It’s still showing as "Jul 23 2020 Fri Jul 24 2020 19:54:06 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time) Day" instead of formatting properly.
Here is my HTML:
<div class="row">
<div class="col" id = "one" ></div>
<div class="col" id = "two" > Day Two</div>
<div class="col" id = "three" > Day Three</div>
<div class="col" id = "four" > Day Four</div>
<div class="col" id = "five" > Day Five</div>
</div>
And here is my javascript:
const tomorrow = new Date()
tomorrow.setDate(new Date(ll).getDate() + 1);
var one = document.getElementById('one');
one.innerHTML = tomorrow;
if you are simply wanting the left side of the date, all you have to do is parse the date string. Something like this:
var mydate = new Date().toString().split(' ');
var formattedDate = b = a[1] + " " + a[2] + " " + a[3];
if you're insistent on the "rd" after your number, that will require a lookup table like in some other answers. This code splits the string into an array of strings by space then combines the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th elements into a new string.

Assuming the format you needed is always like you mentioned
function format(date){
var months=['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];
var suffices={_0:'th',_1:'st',_2:'nd',_3:'rd',_4:'th',_5:'th',_6:'th',_7:'th',_8:'th',_9:'th',_11:'th',_12:'th',_13:'th'};
return months[date.getMonth()]+' '+date.getDate()+(suffices['_'+date.getDate()] || suffices['_'+date.getDate()%10])+' '+date.getFullYear();
}
Usage
format(new Date())//returns "Jul 24th 2020"
format(new Date(2020,11,13))//returns "Dec 13th 2020"
