UTC DateTime返回原始日期时间

Question

I have probably just stared at this too long...

I have a third-party datepicker (ASP/MVC) and I stringify the array of selected dates and pass it to the controller.

example:

• My browser is US EST time zone.
• I select 5/21/2013
• when I stringify it I get ["2013-05-21T04:00:00Z"] (UTC)
• I pass it back to the webserver that is in Us PST timezone
• I want to get it back to 5/21/2013 12:00:00AM

I know that this is meant to be midnight since it is from a timeless datepicker.

In c#, how do I convert this back to its original time? I am in PST but that should not matter.

Answer 1

Try

string date = "2013-05-21T04:00:00Z" ;
DateTime dt = Datetime.parse(date);
dt = dt.Date;

You will get the date component only, with the time component as midnight. I hope this satisfies your requirement.
