Small shim for formatting Pikaday dates as YYYY-MM-DD without moment.js
// Would be ridiculous to pull in the entire moment.js library for this
window.moment = function(dateString) {
var date = new Date(dateString);
var format = function() {
return date.getFullYear() + '-' +
('0' + (date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '-' +
('0' + date.getDate()).slice(-2);
};
return {
format: format,
toDate: format
}
};

When I use this, it works visually (as in the date is displayed in a nice format in the input field). But if you get the value from the field, it isn't a dateobject anymore. And you would have to parse it everytime manually again. Or am I missing something?
