Synopsis
ParseDateTime(datestring[,conversiontype])
Returns a valid ColdFusion date/time object from
datestring. An optional
conversiontype may be specified. Valid
entries for conversiontype are
POP and Standard (the default).
If POP is specified,
datestring is converted to GMT (Greenwich
Mean Time) using the English (U.S.) locale. If
Standard is specified, no conversion is performed.
