Details

(Whiteboard: [webcompat]) 

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/47.0.2526.106 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Currently the only format that Date constructor takes is : yyyy-mm-dd and all other are just "Invalid Date"

new Date("dd-mm-yyyy")
new Date("yyyy-dd-mm")
new Date("mm-dd-yyyy")


Actual results:

Above all throws "Invalid Date" error.


Expected results:

Well I tried the same in Chrome and they just worked! As there is no as such universal format that everyone "should" use in the WebApps they build, we should extend support of other Date formats too.
