getDate Method

Description

Returns the day of the month value in a Date object using local time.

Syntax

objDate.getDate()

Remarks

To get the date value using Universal Coordinated Time (UTC), use the getUTCDate method.

The return value is an integer between 1 and 31 that represents the date value in the Date object.

The following example illustrates the use of the getDate method:

function DateDemo()
{
  var d, s = "Today's date is: ";
  d = new Date();
  s += (d.getMonth() + 1) + "/";
  s += d.getDate() + "/";
  s += d.getYear();
  return(s);
}
