title: javascript make time from DDMMYYYY?
body: <p>I have decided to get the user to enter DDMMYYY to get their birthday.  How do I create a UNIX timestamp in javascript from that data?</p>
  
  <p>Also, once I have the unix timestamp, how do I display it in english, i.e. Monday 5th Jan 2000?</p>
  
  <p>I can do it in PHP easily, I just dont know the functions in javascript.</p>
