  • adding time to time object

    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);
