In EST we have 2 days a year that are 23 and 25 hours long to account for daylight savings time. Not every day is 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 milliseconds long.

The problem is that i want to run a countdown Timer. The timer is start from two dates 1. current date (as New Date()). 2. the immediate Monday (as new Date(“Mon Jan 17 2011″)) The problem is with 2nd date. How i dynamically find the next Monday date ?. Thanks and welcome for Help. Hi,

i have a problem face from last day.

The problem is that i want to run a countdown Timer. The timer is start from two dates
1. current date (as New Date()).
2. the immediate Monday (as new Date(“Mon Jan 17 2011″))

The problem is with 2nd date.

How i dynamically find the next Monday date ?.

Thanks and welcome for Help.

public static const millisecondsPerDay:int = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;

I guess this will do

private function getDaysDifference(minDate:Date, maxDate:Date):uint
{
// for testing 
// var newDate:Date = new Date(2007,9,23); 
// var oldDate:Date = new Date (2007, 8, 23);
return Math.ceil(( minDate.getTime() - maxDate.getTime()) / millisecondsPerDay);
}

Which seems very odd... Peter,

return Math.round((tempDate.time / MS_PER_DAY) + 1).toString();
