What about using CommandName and CommandArgument has shown in this example. This way you can have just one handler.

<asp:Button id="Button1"
       Text="Sort Ascending"
       CommandName="Sort"
       CommandArgument="Ascending"
       OnCommand="CommandBtn_Click" 
       runat="server"/>

  <asp:Button id="Button2"
       Text="Sort Descending"
       CommandName="Sort"
       CommandArgument="Descending"
       OnCommand="CommandBtn_Click" 
       runat="server"/>

Jquery – How to format a Microsoft JSON date

eval() is not necessary. This will work fine:

var date = new Date(parseInt(jsonDate.substr(6)));

The substr() function takes out the /Date( part, and the parseInt() function gets the integer and ignores the )/ at the end. The resulting number is passed into the Date constructor.

I have intentionally left out the radix (the 2nd argument to parseInt); see my comment below.

Also, I completely agree with Rory's comment: ISO-8601 dates are preferred over this old format - so this format generally shouldn't be used for new development.

For ISO-8601 formatted JSON dates, just pass the string into the Date constructor:

var date = new Date(jsonDate); //no ugly parsing needed; full timezone support
