Hi all,
IE10 does not handle dates the same way other browser do anymore. This
breaks a test in the EmulSuite.
// IE10 (Standards mode)
>> new Date(Date.parse("3/31/2000")).toUTCString()
"Fri, 31 Mar 2000 07:00:00 UTC"
// IE9 (Standards mode) and previous versions of IE
>> new Date(Date.parse("3/31/2000")).toUTCString()
"Fri, 31 Mar 2000 08:00:00 UTC"
MS now uses windows time zones to calculate historic dates, see:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2013/03/25/spring-forward-advancing-historical-date-and-time-calculations-on-the-web.aspx
On the Java side:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Date.html#parse(java.lang.String)
"Once the entire string s has been scanned, it is converted to a time
result in one of two ways. If a time zone or time-zone offset has been
recognized, then the year, month, day of month, hour, minute, and second
are interpreted in UTC and then the time-zone offset is applied. Otherwise,
the year, month, day of month, hour, minute, and second are interpreted in
the local time zone."
I appreciate input on this!
