The setMonth()
method sets the month for a specified date according to the currently set year.
dateObj.setMonth(monthValue[, dayValue])
dateObj.setMonth(monthValue)
monthValue
dayValue
If you do not specify the dayValue
parameter, the value returned from the getDate() method is used.
If a parameter you specify is outside of the expected range, setMonth()
attempts to update the date information in the Date object accordingly. For example, if you use 15 for monthValue
, the year will be incremented by 1, and 3 will be used for month.
setMonth()
var theBigDay = new Date(); theBigDay.setMonth(6);
