adding time to time object

[Chris747]

Howdy,

I create a future time by

BuyDate = new Date vBarYear,vBarMonths,vBarDay,vBarHour,vBarMinutes,v BarSeconds);

if at some point i wish to add 45 seconds to this object before this future time is reached thereby extending this future time by 45 seconds, I've not been able to find a simple, clean method.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Chris

I think valueOf returns millisecs (1970) to which you add the delta and use setDate().
But I can't find the reference I thought I had.
For a lot of other stuff re Date I use http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-date0.htm

Hi Dave !

sure enough, ... seems the problem boils down to me not understanding objects ...

solution is

BuyDate.setSeconds(BuyDate.getSeconds() + 45);
