What do you mean by previous date? The day before the given date?

You can just subtract the number of days from the current date, e.g. if you have a date object called date,
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. date.setDate(date.getDate() - previous); // where previous is the number of days to subtract
