Difference in Months between two dates in JavaScript

Question

How would I work out the difference for two Date() objects in JavaScript, while only return the number of months in the difference?

Any help would be great :)

Answer 1

One approach would be to write a simple Java Web Service (REST/JSON) that uses JODA library

http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/faq.html#datediff

to calculate difference between two dates and call that service from javascript.

This assumes your back end is in Java.
