If you just convert the current time into a timestamp, you can directly use new Date().getTime()/1000; but if you want to convert a specific time or date into a Unix timestamp, ie does not support new Date( "2013-1-1") This method with parameters will return NaN.
In this regard, I wrote the following function, which supports ie6, Google, Firefox and other browsers:
function getTime(day){
re = /(d{4})(?:-(d{1,2})(?:-(d{1,2}))?)?(?:s (d{1,2}): (d{1,2}):(d{1,2}))?/.exec(day);
return new Date(re[1],(re[2]||1)-1,re[3]||1,re[4]||0,re[5]||0,re[6]| |0).getTime()/1000;
}
//test
alert(getTime("2013-02-03 10:10:10"));
alert(getTime("2013-02-03"));
alert(getTime("2013-02"));
alert(getTime("2013"));
The following function converts timestamps into date formats. It supports custom date formats. The effect is similar to PHP's date function. It also supports ie6, Google, Firefox and other browsers. This function was implemented by a netizen, I will write one when I have time in the future ^_^
function date(format, timestamp){
var a, jsdate=((timestamp) ? new Date(timestamp*1000) : new Date());

if((n = n "").length < c){
return new Array( c - n.length).join("0") n;
} else {
