    try using this:
    var date = new Date();
var formattedDate = "";
formattedDate = (date.getDate() < 10 )? "0" + date.getDate() : date.getDate();
formattedDate += "/";
formattedDate += (date.getMonth() < 10)? "0" + (date.getMonth()+1) : date.getMonth()+1;
formattedDate += "/";
if ( date.getYear() <= 99) {
  formatedDate += "19"+date.getYear();
}
if ( date.getYear() > 99 && date.getYear() < 2000 ){
  formattedDate += new String(date.getYear() + 1900);
}
formattedDate += " " + (date.getHour() < 10)? "0" + date.getHour() : date.getHour();
formattedDate += ":" + (date.getMinutes() < 10)? "0" + date.getMinutes() : date.getMinutes();
    Code (markup):
    I haven't tested it, so there will probably be some errors :)
