You can get the parts of a date using a regex and call the Date constructor by customizing the month number since monthly numbers are zero-based, for example:

function customDateParse (input) {
  var m = input.match(/(\d+)/g);
  return new Date(m[2], m[1] - 1, m[0], m[3], m[4], m[5]);
}

customDateParse('23/08/2009 12:05:00');
// Sun Aug 23 2009 12:05:00

If you don't like regular expressions:



function customDateParse (input) {
  input = input.split(' ');
  var date = input[0].split('/'),
      time = input[1].split(':');

  return new Date(date[2], date[1] - 1, date[0], time[0], time[1], time[2]);
}

customDateParse('23/08/2009 12:05:00');
// Sun Aug 23 2009 12:05:00

But if you find this complex and want to do more Date manipulations, I highly recommend the DateJS library , which is small, open source and syntactic sugar ...

Use momentjs to convert from string to Date object.

var date = '23/08/2009 12:05:00';
var datetime = moment(date, 'DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm:ss');
datetime = moment.toDate();
