I use this to get the date:
var currentTime = new Date() var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1 var day = currentTime.getDate() var year = currentTime.getFu
add the following prototype method
Date.prototype.addDays = function(days) { this.setDate(this.getDate()+days); }
and than its very simple to use,
currentTime.addDays(5);
