var date = new Date(year, month, day);

or

var date = new Date('01/01/1970');

格式为“01-01-1970”的日期字符串在FireFox中行不通，所以最好在日期格式字符串中使用“/”而不是“-”。

你可以使用regex解析字符串以详细的时间，然后创建日期或任何返回格式，如:

//example : let dateString = "2018-08-17 01:02:03.4"

function strToDate(dateString){
    let reggie = /(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2}) (\d{2}):(\d{2}):(\d{2}).(\d{1})/
  , [,year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, miliseconds] = reggie.exec(dateString)
  , dateObject = new Date(year, month-1, day, hours, minutes, seconds, miliseconds);
  return dateObject;
}
alert(strToDate(dateString));

使用此格式....

//get current date in javascript

  var currentDate = new Date();


// for getting a date from a textbox as string format

   var newDate=document.getElementById("<%=textBox1.ClientID%>").value;

// convert this date to date time

   var MyDate = new Date(newDate);

作为这里所解释的内容的一个插件，您可以使用new Date()创建日期，并使用非常有用的toLocaleDateString()函数对其进行格式化

一个例子:

console.log(new Date('1970-01-01').toLocaleDateString('es-ES')) //——>输出'1/1/1970'

我已经创建了parseDateTime函数将字符串转换为日期对象，它在所有浏览器(包括IE浏览器)中工作，检查是否有人需要，引用 https://github.com/Umesh-Markande/Parse-String-to-Date-in-all-browser

    function parseDateTime(datetime) {
            var monthNames = [
                "January", "February", "March",
                "April", "May", "June", "July",
                "August", "September", "October",
                "November", "December"
              ];
            if(datetime.split(' ').length == 3){
                var date = datetime.split(' ')[0];
                var time = datetime.split(' ')[1].replace('.00','');
                var timearray = time.split(':');
                var hours = parseInt(time.split(':')[0]);
                var format = datetime.split(' ')[2];
                var bits = date.split(/\D/);
                date = new Date(bits[0], --bits[1], bits[2]); /* if you change format of datetime which is passed to this function, you need to change bits e.x ( bits[0], bits[1], bits[2 ]) position as per date, months and year it represent bits array.*/
                var day = date.getDate();
                var monthIndex = date.getMonth();
                var year = date.getFullYear();
                if ((format === 'PM' || format === 'pm') && hours !== 12) {
                    hours += 12;
                    try{  time = hours+':'+timearray[1]+':'+timearray[2] }catch(e){ time = hours+':'+timearray[1] }
                } 
                var formateddatetime = new Date(monthNames[monthIndex] + ' ' + day + '  ' + year + ' ' + time);
                return formateddatetime;
            }else if(datetime.split(' ').length == 2){
                var date = datetime.split(' ')[0];
                var time = datetime.split(' ')[1];
                var bits = date.split(/\D/);
                var datetimevalue = new Date(bits[0], --bits[1], bits[2]); /* if you change format of datetime which is passed to this function, you need to change bits e.x ( bits[0], bits[1], bits[2 ]) position as per date, months and year it represent bits array.*/
                var day = datetimevalue.getDate();
                var monthIndex = datetimevalue.getMonth();
                var year = datetimevalue.getFullYear();
                var formateddatetime = new Date(monthNames[monthIndex] + ' ' + day + '  ' + year + ' ' + time);
                return formateddatetime;
            }else if(datetime != ''){
                var bits = datetime.split(/\D/);
                var date = new Date(bits[0], --bits[1], bits[2]); /* if you change format of datetime which is passed to this function, you need to change bits e.x ( bits[0], bits[1], bits[2 ]) position as per date, months and year it represent bits array.*/
                return date;
            }
            return datetime;
        }

    var date1 = '2018-05-14 05:04:22 AM';   // yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss A
    var date2 = '2018/05/14 05:04:22 AM';   // yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss A
    var date3 = '2018/05/04';   // yyyy/mm/dd
    var date4 = '2018-05-04';   // yyyy-mm-dd
    var date5 = '2018-05-14 15:04:22';   // yyyy-mm-dd HH:mm:ss
    var date6 = '2018/05/14 14:04:22';   // yyyy/mm/dd HH:mm:ss

    console.log(parseDateTime(date1))
    console.log(parseDateTime(date2))
    console.log(parseDateTime(date3))
    console.log(parseDateTime(date4))
    console.log(parseDateTime(date5))
    console.log(parseDateTime(date6))

对于那些正在寻找小巧而智能的解决方案的人:

String.prototype.toDate = function(format)
{
  var normalized      = this.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/g, '-');
  var normalizedFormat= format.toLowerCase().replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/g, '-');
  var formatItems     = normalizedFormat.split('-');
  var dateItems       = normalized.split('-');

  var monthIndex  = formatItems.indexOf("mm");
  var dayIndex    = formatItems.indexOf("dd");
  var yearIndex   = formatItems.indexOf("yyyy");
  var hourIndex     = formatItems.indexOf("hh");
  var minutesIndex  = formatItems.indexOf("ii");
  var secondsIndex  = formatItems.indexOf("ss");

  var today = new Date();

  var year  = yearIndex>-1  ? dateItems[yearIndex]    : today.getFullYear();
  var month = monthIndex>-1 ? dateItems[monthIndex]-1 : today.getMonth()-1;
  var day   = dayIndex>-1   ? dateItems[dayIndex]     : today.getDate();

  var hour    = hourIndex>-1      ? dateItems[hourIndex]    : today.getHours();
  var minute  = minutesIndex>-1   ? dateItems[minutesIndex] : today.getMinutes();
  var second  = secondsIndex>-1   ? dateItems[secondsIndex] : today.getSeconds();

  return new Date(year,month,day,hour,minute,second);
};

例子:

"22/03/2016 14:03:01".toDate("dd/mm/yyyy hh:ii:ss");
"2016-03-29 18:30:00".toDate("yyyy-mm-dd hh:ii:ss");
