Handling Dates

Just wanted to document that dates should be entered in a certain format and not converted to JS Date objects. Example below

RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ_RFC

Formats I tried for RFC for March 12, 2013

---

  new Date("3/12/13") (fail)
  03/12/2013 (fail)
  2013.03.12 (fail)
  20130312 (fail)
  03122013 (pass)
