Ah, indeed. Thank you very much.

I appreciate the fact that I'm a newbie, but it seems to me that the
docs could be a bit clearer about this. Even something like "The
function receives the selected date as a Date, as a string in the
format mm-dd-yyyy, and..." would have been really helpful.

Similarly, the docs for the parseDate function say "Extract a date
from a string value with a specified format.", but it's not clear what
that means; "Create a Date object from a string value..." would be
clearer.

What's the formal way of suggesting an update here? I'm sure other
people would be helped by this as well. I'm happy to send a patch...
