I am getting a date that comes in GMT format, Fri, 18 Oct 2013 11:38:23 GMT. The problem is that the time is messing up the timeline that I am using.

How can I strip ou

Answer 1

In this case you can just manipulate your string without the use of a Date object.

var dateTime = 'Fri, 18 Oct 2013 11:38:23 GMT',
    date = dateTime.split(' ', 4).join(' ');
    
document.body.appendChild(document.createTextNode(date));
