add two years to date string

Hey,

I have a string variable, $s_dateboxEffectiveStartDate

I need to add - two years minus one day - to this variable. Could anyone offer any advise?

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function UpdateShipAndDeliverDates(ElementName) {

        if(ElementName=='s_dateboxEffectiveStartDate') {

            document.MyForm.s_dateboxEffectiveEndDate.value=(document.MyForm.s_dateboxEffectiveStartDate.value) + (TWO YEARS MINUS ONE DAY);

        } else if(ElementName=='s_dateboxEffectiveEndDate') {

            document.MyForm.s_dateboxEffectiveStartDate.value=(document.MyForm.s_dateboxEffectiveEndDate.value) - (TWO YEARS MINUS ONE DAY);

        }

    }

Looks like you want to do that using Javascript?
Have a look at the Date functions reference and try it.

The Date object is pretty dynamic and very easy to add years/months/days to it. Create a Date object and use the set*** functions to add by adding to the get*** versions.

ps. I've moved and merged these threads.
