Subtracting days/months/years from a Date object

Question

var inputDate     = \'20/4/2010\'.split(\'/\');
var dateFormatted = new Date(parseInt(inputDate[2]), parseInt(inputDate[1]), parseInt(inputDate[0]));

var expiryDate         


        

Answer 1

var currentDate = new Date(year,month,day);
var expiryDate = new Date();
expiryDate.setTime(currentDate.getTime() + (3 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));

using the number of seconds past 1970 is fine for this :-) oh, you have more rules. well after that you will still have to check for those cases...
