使用AM / PM将日期字符串转换为javascript日期对象

Question

I would like to convert 'April 25, 2016 Mon 09:59 PM' to a javascript date object so that I can do some basic math on it. However, Date.parse() does not work producing Nan. I assume it's because Date.parse has specific requirements for formatting.

I cannot use any external libraries besides jQuery.

Answer 1

try to remove the date of the week using regex:

 var date = 'April 25, 2016 Mon 09:59 PM'; date = new Date(date.replace(/([0-9]{4}) .{3}/, '$1')); document.body.innerHTML = date; 

Answer 2

The correct format would be:

var myDate=new Date('April 25, 2016 09:59 PM')

or

var myDate=new Date('Mon April 25, 2016 09:59 PM')

now you have a myDate object of type Date and you may access all the methods for the date object to do your calculations.
