I have just upgraded to Q1 release and have noticed a change in the datetime formatting in my grids when loading using Ajax.

I have a grid that has 2 date fields that are formatted as follows;

            columns.Add(o => o.LicenceStartDate).Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}").Title(ViewData["txtStartDate"].ToString());
            columns.Add(o => o.LicenceEndDate).Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy}").Title(ViewData["txtEndDate"].ToString());

When my grid loads I get the following date format output '01/03/2010'

However if I then click refresh or sort a column my dates get formatted like this 'Mon Mar 01 2010 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)', what has changed? What did I miss?

Hi Andy McShane,

This is a strange issue and we have never seen it before. Do you see any JavaScript errors when you sort the grid? Reverting to default JavaScript date format means that something wrong happened during ajax binding. I tried to reproduce it in the first look grid example to no avail. The format set for the column should persist between initial loading and sorting/paging. As always we would appreciate a live url or some steps to reproduce this issue. Can this be seen in the web site which you provided in one of your other forum threads?

Yes, this behaviour can be observed on the site I provided a link for,

Once logged in click on 'Customer Administration',
Select 'Edit' for 'Customer ID' 7,
Select 'Licence Details' tab,
Click on the column header for one of the dates.

Hi Andy McShane,

I couldn't find a link to 'Customer Administration'. I have attached a link showing the initial screen.

Date sorting seems to work fine on another page http://mvc.asmwp.co.uk/ServiceUser

Sorry, been playing with translations! select the first option on the list on the first page 'Kundenverwaltung', then select 'Kunden Id' 7, then select the second tab 'Licence Details'.

Hi Andy McShane,

I believe I have found the problem. Since the Q1 release the grid has a dependency on telerik.calendar.js if it contains columns bound to DateTime (basically most of the date-related routines have been moved there including formatting). This is mentioned in our Changes and Backward Compatibility help topic. The solution is to include telerik.calendar.js as well. If you plan to use filtering you should also include telerik.datepicker.js.
