Date math

[wildfiction]

I have a Date object:

var today = new Date();

I want to add 7 days to it. Can this be done in javascript?

I've tried the following which don't work:

var nextDate = today + 7;
var nextDate = today + new Date(1970, 0, 7)

Thanks

Re: Date math

var myDate=new Date()
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate()+7)
