jQuery FullCalendar startParam/endParam format

Question

The format of of the fullcalendar startParam and endParam, doesn't seem to match their documentation. The doucumentation says it is an ISO8601 date format, but I'm pretty sure something bogus is going on. This is what I see coming out of my browser connecting to my JSON feed:

  end  1407650400
start  1404021600

If this is ISO8601, I would guess the first two numbers are the year, the next two the month, then what is the rest? It seems more like it is the unix timestamp, but the Unix timestamp is not ISO8601 as quoted in the documentation.

Any insight would be great, thanks!

Answer 1

In version 1.6.x the startParam and endParam is an UNIX timestamp, eg. 1407650400. In the newly released version 2.0.x this is changed to an ISO8601 date.

Please check if the version you are using and the documentation is the same version.

Answer 2

It's the UNIX Time and defined as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), Thursday, 1 January 1970.
