1. i tried

new Date("2018-05-21T01:31:16+0000")

but didn't work out. error =

RangeError: Date is invalid.

2. tried

format.parse

and

type=date/datetime

and got a string as return

new Date() not working for you ?

yes,

new Date()

works but with parameters of the string doesn't

What I did for my script was split the string using 'T' then '-'. Then I passed it to the Date constructor.

new Date(date_parts[0], date_parts[1] - 1, date_parts[2]);

@rustyshackles Thank you. That's a good idea since the date format is fixed in this case

Would also recommend momentjs and see if that’ll parse it out correctly. That’s the only library I use with dates these days.

@creece tried to

new Date()

then set y,m,d but still got errors. momentjs is the final solution...
