Javascript date to C# via Ajax

rated 0 times [ 70] [ 5] / answers: 1 / hits: 33155 / 15 Years ago, wed, december 9, 2009, 12:00:00

I have javascript date object which gives me a date string in this format, Wed Dec 16 00:00:00 UTC-0400 2009.

I pass this via Ajax to the server (ASP.NET c#)

How can I convert, Wed Dec 16 00:00:00 UTC-0400 2009 to a C# DateTime object. DateTime.Parse fails.

You can use DateTime.ParseExact which allows you to specify a format string to be used for parsing:

DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(Wed Dec 16 00:00:00 UTC-0400 2009,

                                  ddd MMM d HH:mm:ss UTCzzzzz yyyy,

                                  CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
