You could do:

$('div.date').replaceWith('2010<span>JAN</span>30');

or even

$('div.date').replaceWith($('div.date').text().replace(/-01-/, '<span>JAN</span>'));

yes that's the regex zone.

you can extend that like forever.

var date = "2010-01-30";
var m = ["jan", "feb", "mar", "apr", "may", "jun", "jul", "aug", "sep", "oct", "nov", "dec"];
date = date.replace(/^(\d+)-(\d+)-(\d+)$/, function($0, $1, $2, $3){
return $1 + "-" + m[parseInt($2)-1] + "-" + $3;
});

Kind Regards

Tank You kbwood.au & a.goebel for your reply .

Meanwile i've came up with this solution that does the trick, but i will try extend it with Andy's aproach and try to make this with less code

jQuery("div.blog_date").each(function(){
 		
		jQuery("div.blog_date").each(function(){
        jQuery(this).html(jQuery(this).html().replace(/-01-/, "<strong>JAN</strong>"));
});
		jQuery("div.blog_date").each(function(){
        jQuery(this).html(jQuery(this).html().replace(/-02-/, "<strong>FEV</strong>"));
});
		jQuery("div.blog_date").each(function(){
        jQuery(this).html(jQuery(this).html().replace(/-03-/, "<strong>MAR</strong>"));
});
