title: How to convert unix timestamp to JavaScript date object (consider time zone)
body: <pre><code>var date = new Date(1257397200000​);
  document.write(date);
  ​
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Ran the code above I got <code>Wed Nov 04 2009 23:00:00 GMT-0600 (Central Standard Time)</code></p>
  
  <p>I am looking for a way to create date object based on different time zone, say for that time stamp I want to obtain date object like <code>Thursday, November 5th 2009, 00:00:00 (GMT -5)</code>. </p>
  
  <p>Note that the dates are different according to above two time zones, <strong>though they represent same point in time</strong>. I am in CST, is that why the created object is generated using CST? </p>
  
  <p>Thank you. </p>
