title: Javascript Date object returns 'invalid date' for my date string
body: <p>I want to create a Date object in Javascript using this string <code>04/21/2014 12:00p</code>
  When passed to the constructor (<code>new Date('04/21/2014 12:00p')</code>), it returns <code>Invalid Date</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I've seen other posts which manipulate the string in order to fulfill the requirements of a valid dateString, however that is not what I want.  I want Javascript to recognize my date format (<code>m/dd/yy h:mmt</code>).  In Java, something like that is simple, I imagine that there would be a similar way in Javascript.</p>
  
  <p>How can I get the Date object to recognize my format?</p>
