Javascript OR operator not working in if statement

Question

I\'m trying to get this Javascript to do something if the day of the week matches any of the days listed in my statement, as well as restricting it to between 17:00 and 19:0

Answer 1

Just for the sake of posting another possibility, if you ever will have a dynamic input you may want to use an array and use indexOf to check whether the day exists in the list:

var d = new Date();
var dayOfWeek = d.getDay(); // 0 = Sunday
var hour = d.getHours();

if ( [4,5,6].indexOf(dayOfWeek) > -1 && hour >= 17 && hour < 19 ){
    // do stuff
  } else {
    // do other stuff 
}
