Converting JSON string into date
javascript, jquery, json
Solution
That would be seconds, and javascript uses milliseconds which would be
1351993013000
which would give you Sunday Nov 04 2012.
in other words:
var jsonDate = parseInt(plugin.versions[0].date, 10) * 1000;
Problem
Possible Duplicate: Convert a Unix timestamp to time in Javascript I'm trying to convert the string that this api returns for date. The format is `1351993013`. I tried the following line of JS but the date is completely wrong. ``` var jsonDate = plugin.versions[0].date; var pluginDate = new Date(jsonDate); ``` Which returns: ``` Fri Jan 16 1970 ``` This is the first time I've tried to format a JSON date so it's a bit confusing. Can anyone help?
