Description
This function returns a possibly fractional number of seconds, according to the following rules:
- If the string parameter represents a legal lexical xsd:dateTime, the return value is equal to the number of seconds difference between the specified dateTime (normalized to UTC) and 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.
If no time zone is specified, UTC is used. Any other input string parameter causes a return value of NaN.
This function does not support leap seconds.
