I\'m using jQuery\'s datepicker plugin in .NET ASP MVC3 intranet application. User that use application have offices in different countries and different locale. This is why
The codeproject article JQueryUI Datepicker in ASP.NET MVC http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/62031/JQueryUI-Datepicker-in-ASP-NET-MVC has function that does exactly what you wanted
/// Converts the .net supported date format current culture
/// format into JQuery Datepicker format.
///
/// HtmlHelper object.
/// Date format supported by .NET.
/// Format string that supported in JQuery Datepicker.
public static string ConvertDateFormat(this HtmlHelper html, string format)
I've also posted a function that does the opposite-Translate jQuery UI Datepicker format to .Net Date format
