Javascript Array Deferencing?

Posted May 19, 2008

I have an array, say:


var pieces = [2008, 5, 19, 13, 49];

I’d like to create a date based on this; the equivalent of:


new Date( 2008, 5, 19, 13, 49 );

Is there a way to do that in Javascript? Can I dereference the array in my date create call? I’d prefer to avoid eval.

I think something like Date.apply(pieces) should DTRT. Untested of course.
