Description

Returns the day of the month as stored in a Date object according to local time.

Syntax

objDate.getDate()

Remarks

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

The return value is an integer between 1 and 31 that represents the date stored 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);
}
