docs: Returns a date object for the date represented by the given DOM element from the following sources (in order): 1) element.data("easydate.date") (in case we previously cached it) 2) DOM element's title (if it is a valid RFC 1123 timestamp) 3) DOM element's innerHTML (if it is a valid RFC 1123 timestamp)
