Sorry, first post didn't come through properly. Try this:
var origDateString:String = "2008/12/31";
var dateItems:Array = origDateString.split("/");
var newDate:Date = new Date(dateItems[0], Number(dateItems[1])-1,
Number(dateItems[2])+1);
var newDateString:String = newDate.getFullYear() + "/" + (newDate.getMonth() +
1) + "/"
+ newDate.getDate();
