Javascript date parsing on Iphone
Not all browsers support the same date formats. The best approach is to split the string on the separator characters (-, and :) instead, and pass each of the resulting array items to the Date constructor:
var arr = "2010-03-15 10:30:00".split(/[- :]/), date = new Date(arr[0], arr[1]-1, arr[2], arr[3], arr[4], arr[5]);console.log(date);//-> Mon Mar 15 2010 10:30:00 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)This will work the same in all browsers.
For UTC/GMT time, you can try:
var arr = "2014-10-27T16:05:44+0000".split(/[\-\+ :T]/); var date = new Date(); date.setUTCFullYear(arr[0]); date.setUTCMonth(arr[1] - 1); date.setUTCDate(arr[2]); date.setUTCHours(arr[3]); date.setUTCMinutes(arr[4]); date.setUTCSeconds(arr[5]);The date object will display in the proper local timezone when used.
You might have better luck if you stick to ISO 8601 format:
Date.parse("2010-03-15T10:30:00");// e.g.var d = new Date( Date.parse("2010-03-15T10:30:00") );console.log( d.toString() ); //Mon Mar 15 2010 10:30:00 GMT+0000 (BST)
