My code is like this :

var createdDate = '2013-01-21 01:23:44';

createdDate = new Date(createdDate);

date = createdDate.toLocaleDateString();

time = createdDate.toLocaleTimeString().replace(/(.*)Dd+/, '$1');

console.log(date+' '+time);

The result : 1/21/2013 1:23 AM

I want the result : 2013-01-21 1:23 AM

Any solution to solve my problem?

There are, of course, vanilla solutions but working with date/time in JS is generally a pain. If you're going to be working with date/time in any serious capacity I would highly recommend using Moment.js's format method for its robustness and flexibility, and it should be able to do what you want.

Examples from the docs:

moment().format(); // 2014-09-08T08:02:17-05:00 (ISO 8601)

moment().format(dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a); // Sunday, February 14th 2010, 3:25:50 pm

moment().format(ddd, hA);                       // Sun, 3PM

moment('gibberish').format('YYYY MM DD');         // Invalid date
