string to datetime conversion javascript

How do I convert string(09-Apr-2010) in to date time (09 April 2010 00:00:00) using java script? I need to compare the da开发者_如何学编程tes for validation.

check out Date.parse

str = "09-Apr-2010"
date = new Date(Date.parse(str.replace(/-/g, " ")))
alert(date.toLocaleString())

Try this should work

<script language="javascript">
    function validateDate(oSrc, args)
    {
        var iDay, iMonth, iYear;
        var arrValues;
        arrValues = args.Value.split("/");
        iMonth = arrValues[0];
        iDay = arrValues[1];
        iYear = arrValues[2];

        var testDate = new Date(iYear, iMonth - 1, iDay);

        if ((testDate.getDate() != iDay) ||
            (testDate.getMonth() != iMonth - 1) ||
            (testDate.getFullYear() != iYear))
        {
            args.IsValid = false;
            return;
        }

        return true;
    }
</script>
