This looks like an odd way to do this conversion to a time_t value.

You're aware the Date object has multiple constructors? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/Date

So, I think you could boil function this down to a single line that doesn't involve any string formatting or parsing:
`return new Date(pYear, pMonthNum - 1, pDayNum, pHour, pMinute, pSecond === undefined ? 0 : pSecond);`
