I am using new Date in javascript. In case of firefox if i try

 new Date('2016-02-31')

it gives me invalid date but if I perform the same action in chrome, it gives me

Wed Mar 02 2016 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (IST)

i.e. it is incrementing the value to the subsequent month (2 days in this case).

Is it intentional or a bug in chrome?

Google Chrome version : Version 49.0.2623.87 (64-bit)

Firefox version : 41.0.1

use `MM/DD/YYYY` example `02/31/2016` format instead in firefox – Beginner Nov 11 '16 at 06:50
