Hi,

I am displaying some dates, from today 12-11 on every button click i increase with +1 so i get next they, and when its saturday or sunday i want to increase higher then +1 so i dont dont need to press the button 3 times to come to the 15/12 because 13,14 dec are saturday and sunday

JavaScript

var increase=0;
function IncreaseDays()
{ 
var toTime= new Date()
        increase = increase + 1;
        toTime.setDate(toTime.getDate() + increase);
    
    
        if (toTime.getDay() == 0) {

        toTime.setDate(toTime.getDate() + 1);
        }
     else if(toTime.getDay() == 6) {
 
      toTime.setDate(toTime.getDate() + 2);
      }



}

Right now it adds +1 if the they is not saturday or sunday, but i only get like this
11 dec
12 dec
13 dec (not displayed)
14 dec (not displayed)
15 dec
But when here trying to click the button again i need to press the button 3 times before 16 dec shows up=? why?

If you debug the code you'll see exactly what is happening.

Than you need to explain what you see and doubt with the same. Further, you have already posted this once. Don't repost questions. Its not allowed. Don't tell me this is different one.

As Ryan said, if you debug your code, you'll see exactly what is happening, and the reason should be obvious:

First click:
increase = 1
toTime = (11 + 1) = 12th December
Result: 12th December.

Second click:
increase = 2
toTime = (11 + 2) = 13th December
It's a Saturday, so add two days.
Result: 15th December

Third click:
increase = 3
toTime = (11 + 3) = 14th December
It's a Sunday, so add one day.
Result: 15th December

Fourth click:
increase = 4
toTime = (11 + 4) = 15th December
Result: 15th December

Fifth click:
increase = 5
toTime = (11 + 5) = 16th December
Result: 16th December

When you add the extra days to skip Saturday / Sunday, you've forgotten to update the increase variable.

10 dec increase gets 1 displays 11dec
11 dec increase gets 2 displays 12dec
13 dec increase gets 3 goes in to else if(toTime.getDay() == 6) {

toTime.setDate(toTime.getDate() + 2);
}
Display 15Dec on click on dec to display 16 dec it has increase 4 and goes in to if (toTime.getDay() == 0) {

toTime.setDate(toTime.getDate() + 1);
}
on next click increase gets 5 and nothing happens,
On next klick increase gets 6 and are then displayed

How could i update 'When you add the extra days to skip Saturday / Sunday, you've forgotten to update the increase variable.'

Richard Deeming 11-Dec-14 9:15am

Seriously?!

When you add days to your toTime, you need to update the increase variable to match. It's not rocket science!

Good answer ;)

Seriously?!
How do u mean?

I've already given you a detailed explanation of why your code isn't doing what you want. Since you don't seem to understand, I suggest you re-read my answer carefully and try debugging your code.

If you still can't see where the problem is, then I suggest you go and take some introductory programming and logic courses.

Very good and detailled explanation. My 5.
