javascript date + 7 days

Question

What\'s wrong with this script?

When I set my clock to say 29/04/2011 it adds 36/4/2011 in the week input! but the correct date should be 6/

Answer 1

Something like this?

var days = 7;
var date = new Date();
var res = date.setTime(date.getTime() + (days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));
alert(res);

convert to date again:

date = new Date(res);
alert(date)

or alternatively:

date = new Date(res);

// hours part from the timestamp
var hours = date.getHours();

// minutes part from the timestamp
var minutes = date.getMinutes();

// seconds part from the timestamp
var seconds = date.getSeconds();

// will display time in 10:30:23 format
var formattedTime = date + '-' + hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds;
alert(formattedTime)
