    copied!<p>It would be wise to set and return the date from the server as well so you get one central authority on when things happened. It's generally a good idea to package as UTC in milliseconds because this gives client-side developers a lot of options and makes things much easier to manage in regards to time-zones etc. So, let's say you've handed off the following JSON to the client-side:</p> <pre><code>{ responseDate:1386181171730, userId:'2013-testCERTv36LBQB' } </code></pre> <p>Here's how I typically handle the HTML formatting using {{}} to tokenize variables for replacement.</p> <pre><code>function createPhm(ajaxSuccessObject){ var //var block phm =[ //array/whitespace format so we can still view/edit in an HTML-ish format '&lt;div id="package-header-message"&gt;', '&lt;p&gt;Your incident was submitted on {{DATE}}. Your test-CERT Incident ID number is:&lt;/p&gt;', '&lt;span class="bold left-indent"&gt;{{USER_ID}}&lt;/span&gt;', '&lt;/div&gt;' ].join(''), //converted to string injectedValues = { DATE = Date( ajaxSuccessObject.date ), USER_ID = ajaxSuccessObject.userId } ;//end var block return ( injectValues( injectedValues, phm ) ); } //broke this out for more generic handling of HTML function injectValues(valuesObj, targetString){ for(var x in valuesObj){ var globalRegExMatcher = new RegExp('\\{\\{'+ x +'\\}\\}','g'); targetString = targetString.replace( globalRegExMatcher, valuesObj[x] ); } return targetString; } </code></pre> <p>So your ajax success function might look like:</p> <pre><code>... success: function(jsonObj){ $( createPhm(jsonObj) ).appendTo('#frm'); //or prependTo for putting at top }, ... </code></pre> <p>Quick note: Don't use .html like you have been. That replaces all the html in the container. It's just innerHTML basically.</p> <p>Also, if you have HTML that will never change, put it in your HTML file. I would normally just have an empty <code>&lt;div id="package-header-message"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</code> in my HTML file and .html directly into that but wanted to keep html similar to avoid confusion.</p>
