Angular2/JS - Date expression works only in Chrome

Question

I just tested my app today with my FireFox browser after using Chrome all along, and I noticed my app is not working correctly.

I've done some searching and I found that the following expression recognized has "Invalid date" in FF/IE, and works in chrome:

this.future = new Date(this.travelData.created_at);

when console logging this.future, I get Invalid Date message.

While console logging this.future in Chroms returns:

Mon May 23 2016 19:56:48 GMT+0300

So I wonder, how I can make it work in FF and other browsers too, while this.travelData.created_at returns the following format from my API:

2016-05-23 19:47:07

Hope someone knows a solution to this browser strange error, Thank you!

Answer 1

I guess you would need to convert this.travelData.created_at to a valid date first.
