Why can't I create a Date from a string including milliseconds?
- by KooiInc
In javascript you can create a Date object from a string, like
var mydate = new Date('2008/05/10 12:08:20');
console.log(mydate); //=> Sat May 10 2008 12:08:20 GMT+0200
Now try this using milliseconds in the string
var mydate = new Date('2008/05/10 12:08:20:551'); // or '2008/05/10 12:08:20.551'
console.log(mydate); //=> NaN
Just out of curiosity: why is this?
