Arguments: JScript Date Object setUTCMonth Method

objDate

The name of a Date object. Required.

numMonth

A numeric value equal to the month. Required.

dateVal

A numeric value representing the date. If not supplied, the value from a call to the getUTCDate method is used. Optional.

Remarks: JScript Date Object setUTCMonth Method

To set the month value according to local time, use the setMonth method.

If the value of numMonth is greater than 11 (January is month 0) or is a negative number, the stored year is incremented or decremented appropriately.

For example, if the stored date is "Jan 5, 1996 00:00:00.00," and setUTCMonth(14) is called, the date is changed to "Mar 5, 1997 00:00:00.00."
