Loading JSON Dates

Loading JSON Dates (Vue)

Since JSON doesn't support dates very well, you may need to format them when loading in data from a server. This sample demonstrates how dates may appear in the FlexGrid before and after they are 'revived'. It uses the JSON.parse method to turn strings that look like dates into Date objects.
