Date setTime Error

[m4uConcept]

Mybe anyone had this problem before or knows whats wrong whith the following code:

<script language='JavaScript'>
var calcDate = new Date(2003,9,15);
var ms = calcDate.getTime();
ms = ms + (12*24*60*60*1000);
calcDate.setTime(ms);

day = parseInt(calcDate.getDate(), 10);
month = parseInt(calcDate.getMonth(), 10)+1;
year = parseInt(calcDate.getYear() ,10);
hours = parseInt(calcDate.getHours() ,10);
minutes = parseInt(calcDate.getMinutes() ,10);

clickDateStr = day+&quot;-&quot;+month+&quot;-&quot;+
year+&quot; &quot;+hours+&quot;:&quot;+minutes;
alert(clickDateStr);
</script>

the script adds 12 days to the 15-10-2003!

result on my pc: 26-10-2003 23:0
in my opinion the result must be 27-10-2003 0:0

with var calcDate = new Date(2003,8,15); everything works fine... hoping for help

Thx Roland

m4uConcept, Here ya go:

<script language='JavaScript'>
  var calcDate = new Date();
  var ms = calcDate.getTime();
  ms = ms + (12*60*60*1000);
  calcDate.setTime(ms);
        
  day = parseInt(calcDate.getDate());
  month = parseInt(calcDate.getMonth(), 10)+1;
  year = parseInt(calcDate.getFullYear());
  hours = parseInt(calcDate.getHours() ,10);
  minutes = parseInt(calcDate.getMinutes() ,10);
        
  clickDateStr = day+&quot;-&quot;+month+&quot;-&quot;+year+&quot;  &quot;+hours+&quot;:&quot;+minutes;
  alert(clickDateStr);
</script>

It's no big deal really...

You have forgotten to add the ms (millisecond) value with 24 (a day has 24 hours)

I've solved the problem

The clue is the change from daylight saving time to wintertime. Thats the reason where the one hour has stayed!
