Remove leading zeroes in datestring

Question

I have a date string like the following: 2011-02-03. I want to remove the leading zeroes in the day and month part of the string. How do I do this?

Answer 1

"2011-02-03".replace(/-0+/g, '-'); // => "2011-2-3"

[Update]

Per @Lucky's question, you can account for other formats that might have a leading zero as such:

"02-03".replace(/(^|-)0+/g, "$1"); // => "2-3"
