JavaScript getMonth and getDay not returning correct values

Hi,

I must be losing my mind why is the following code returning wrong
values?

var d = new Date();
alert(d); -> Fri Apr 7 09:28:18 EDT 2006
alert("Hour:" + d.getHours()); -> 9
alert("Year:" + d.getYear()); -> 2006
alert("Month:" + d.getMonth()); -> 3
alert("Day:" + d.getDay()); -> 5

Thanks
Maz.

Indeed.

It is correct, please read the specs!
var d = new Date();
alert(d); -> Fri Apr 7 09:28:18 EDT 2006
alert("Hour:" + d.getHours()); -> 9
alert("Year:" + d.getYear()); -> 2006
alert("Month:" + d.getMonth()); -> 3
alert("Day:" + d.getDay()); -> 5


3 = April [0 = January]

5 = Friday [0 = Sunday]

Lookup: getDate()
