How to convert string to datetime using jquery?

Question

i just want to convert string to datetime and then store the date in asp.net calander control's Visible date property. Following is my code

             $.ajax({
                 type: "POST",
                 url: "dataCheck.aspx/calanderdates",
                 data: '{item:"' + item + '"}',
                 contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                 dataType: "json",

                 success: function (response) {
                     var sdate = Date(response.d)

                       cal.attr("VisibleDate", sdate);

                 },
                 error: function () {
                     alert(msg.status);
                 }
             });
         });
     });

But code is not working

Try to know exactly where is the problem, use developer tools in Google chrome to detect if there is errors in the JavaScript code or in the response , the error may happen in the server side, detect your error position — ahmedsafan86, Jun 19 '13 at 07:57
