Date format in JavaScript and Java

Question

I have these time formats in Java which I use to format the date:

dd-mm-yyyy
dd-mm-rr
dd-mon-yyyy
dd-mon-rr
dd/mon/yyyy

When I use these time formats with JQuery time picker I get this output:

24-08-rr
24-08-20122012

Can you tell me how I can use one time format for Java and for JavaScript? How I can solve this problem?

Java is not Javascript. Except for the similar names, they're not related, and date formats in one are not going to be same as date formats in the other. You will have to adjust your format strings as necessary for each language. — Marc B

JQuery time picker ? you mean jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker ? or any other plugin ? — Diode

If you can use momentjs on the client side, then you can use the momentjs/SimpleDateFormat converter to translate your SimpleDateFormat strings into momentjs format. — Shadow Man

For example you can use next:
-On client side

$("#input-field-id").datepicker().mask("99/99/9999");

-On server side

org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormatter DATE_TIME_FORMATTER =
      DateTimeFormat.forPattern("MM/dd/yyyy");  
DATE_TIME_FORMATTER.parseDateTime(dateThatYouGatFromClientPart);
