Localized Date Strings

Subject: Formatting date/time strings

Is there a good way to format a date/time string using the current system local?  The javascript function toLocaleString() only outputs the long date + time format.  I’m looking for a way to do short date, short time, and other formats.  Any tips/suggestions, other than just providing a format string that gets localized for a particular language (not the best solution, but better than nothing).
