Setup

var ViewModel = function() {
    
      var self = this;
    
      //---Properties---
      self.birthDate = ko.observable("July 1");
      self.anniversaryDate = ko.observable("July 2");
      self.paroleDate = ko.observable("July 3");
    
    
      //---Behavior---
      self.changeData = function() {
    
        var now = new Date();
    
        self.birthDate(now.getTime());
        self.anniversaryDate(now.getTime());
        self.paroleDate(now.getTime());
      }
    
    };
    
    
    
    
    //---ACTIVATE KO---
    var viewModel1 = new ViewModel();
    ko.applyBindings(viewModel1, document.getElementById("noTemplateBinding"));
    
    //---ACTIVATE KO---
    var viewModel2 = new ViewModel();
    ko.applyBindings(viewModel2, document.getElementById("yesTemplateBinding"));
    
    //---ACTIVATE KO---
    var viewModel3 = new ViewModel();
    ko.applyBindings(viewModel3, document.getElementById("containerlessTemplateBinding"));
