Lost here. The following works in Chrome wonderfully, but in IE and FireFox "undefined undefined NaN Nan" is returned

What am I missing?

var dateString = $(this).attr("ows_EventDate");
var current_date = new Date(dateString);
var month_names = [];
month_names[month_names.length] = "January";
month_names[month_names.length] = "February";
month_names[month_names.length] = "March";
month_names[month_names.length] = "April";
month_names[month_names.length] = "May";
month_names[month_names.length] = "June";
month_names[month_names.length] = "July";
month_names[month_names.length] = "August";
month_names[month_names.length] = "September";
month_names[month_names.length] = "October";
month_names[month_names.length] = "November";
month_names[month_names.length] = "December";
var day_names = [];
day_names[day_names.length] = "Sunday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Monday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Tuesday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Wednesday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Thursday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Friday";
day_names[day_names.length] = "Saturday";

var startU = (day_names[current_date.getDay()]) + (", ") 
  + (month_names[current_date.getMonth()]) + (" ") + current_date.getDate() 
  + (" ") + (" ") + current_date.getFullYear();

Chrome returns... Thursday, February 23 2012 etc, etc just perfectly.

• 2 what is the value for the value ing out of $(this).attr("ows_EventDate")? – Alastair Pitts Commented Mar 7, 2012 at 4:43
• This jsFiddle jsfiddle/jfriend00/rgMmH works fine for me in Chrome, Firefox and IE9. Since you haven't included the value of $(this).attr("ows_EventDate");, I had to bypass that. – jfriend00 Commented Mar 7, 2012 at 4:47
• Also, do you realize that this is a very inefficient way to declare your arrays. You can just do this; var day_names = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"]; – jfriend00 Commented Mar 7, 2012 at 4:49
• I realize that it's horribly inefficient now. Newb = me :) The value that ing in, for the February example above, would be "2012-02-04 21:00:00" – CeeMoney Commented Mar 7, 2012 at 4:54

dateString must be formatted correctly. ISO 8601 date formats should work (http://www.iso/iso/date_and_time_format)

In your ment you said dateString is equal to 2012-02-04 21:00:00. Replacing the space with a T would make it a valid date format that all browsers can parse, for example:

2012-02-04T21:00:00.

Example: http://jsfiddle/TQjhP/

Your date "2012-02-04 21:00:00" is not accepted by the Date() constructor in IE.

See this related post for details: Javascript Date() constructor doesn't work.

The spec for what the Date() constructor is supposed to accept as a string is RFC2822 if you really want the details of what is legal.

Apparently, Firefox and IE work with "2012/02/04 21:00:00".

See this article for further discussion.
