Adding hours to JavaScript Date object?
JavaScript itself has terrible Date/Time API's. Nonetheless, you can do this in pure JavaScript:
Date.prototype.addHours = function(h) {
this.setTime(this.getTime() + (h*60*60*1000));
return this;
}
Date.prototype.addHours= function(h){
this.setHours(this.getHours()+h);
return this;
}
Test:
alert(new Date().addHours(4));
The below code is to add 4 hours to date(example today's date)
var today = new Date();
today.setHours(today.getHours() + 4);
It will not cause error if you try to add 4 to 23 (see the docs):
If a parameter you specify is outside of the expected range, setHours() attempts to update the date information in the Date object accordingly
