title: javascript date.parse difference in chrome and other browsers
body: <p>I have a date string "2011-11-24T09:00:27+0000" fetched from the graph.facebook API.</p>
  
  <p>When I run </p>
  
  <pre><code>var timestamp = Date.parse(facebookDate);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in chrome. I get a timestamp that relates to the date! perfect!</p>
  
  <p>But in EVERY other major browser... I get "NaN" !!! ?</p>
  
  <p>Surely all these browsers use the same javascript parse function right?</p>
  
  <p>Can anybody explain why the same javascript function give different results?</p>
  
  <p>And can anybody also tell me how to fix this issue...</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
  
  <p>Alex</p>
