(new Date('2012-12-01')).getMonth() === 10?

Question

(new Date(\'2012-12-01\')).getMonth() is 10 instead of 11 (getMonth is 0-indexed). I\'ve tested on Firefox, Chrome, and N

Answer 1

The error is arising from prefixing the day 01 with 0. Not sure WHY this is, but if you remove the zero before the 1, it gives you the right month (11).

Also, it starts giving the wrong month at October if that means anything.

Short term fix, use 1 instead of 01.
