The SWF runtime does not support parsing dates from strings. It is a
limitation imposed by Flash:

I added more debug :
var date_birth = new Date('1/1/2006');
var thisYear = new Date().getYear();
var age = thisYear - date_birth.getYear();
pouette.setText(date_birth + " : " + thisYear + " : " + age);
The text show -> Invalid date : undefined : NaN
So, apparently, the probleme is on date_birth first,
note that does not mean there is no bug on getYear() (I'll try
right now).

Looks like a bug with the SWF compiler. Please file at http://

As a work-around, try:
thisYear =(new Date).getFullYear()
which I just tested and appears to work correctly.

Hi the list !
Any idea why that code produce NaN ?
I'm not sure about the OL version since I tried that snipset
online with

navset=nav10.xml&bookmark=Introduction
When I try my full code with 4.0.2 I got this error :
WARNING: pet-create-1.lzx:329: reference to undefined property
'getFullYear'
ERROR: Compiler.substitute:-1: undefined object does not have a
property 'make'
Are there known issue with JavaScript Date Object ?
