date problem in javascript

Question

hello, I've a problem with date in Javascript. I need to increase by 1 day a date and I'm using this:

var myDate = new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate() + 1);

but when is the 30th of june the increased date will be the 31th of june and not the 1st of lst of july.

how can I obtain a correct increased data???

Answer 1

No it won't. Try this snippet, works just fine.

var myDate = new Date();
myDate.setDate(30); // it's June as of the writing of this question
                    // so we're setting it to June 30th.
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate() + 1);
alert(myDate)

Update: I tried this in IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari and it worked just fine.

Answer 2

Date manipulation can be hard - use a library like Datejs to do the hard work for you.

Answer 3

How about setting time of the myDate:

myDate.setTime(myDate.getTime() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
