JSON.Encode to produce new Date(yyy, MM, dd) datetime

Question

I use chap-tim JS component (http://almende.github.io/chap-links-library/timeline.html) that accepts only the following JSON format:

 data = [ { 'start': new Date(2010, 7, 26), 'content': 'test ' } ];

I have no problem with all other values accept date ... It will not accept any other format and i have no idia how to emmit the new Date(2010, 7, 26) format.

I use this to set the JSON data in a hidden field and then $.parseJSON to parse it

@Html.Hidden("timeline-data", Json.Encode(Model.GanntItems));

and then:

$.parseJSON($("#timeline-data").val());

but it emits the following "/Date(1388728800000)/" and its now good...

any way to overcome this ?

The easiest solution is to parse it in Javascript like following:

 value = new Date(parseInt(value.replace("/Date(", "").replace(")/",""), 10));
