Add days to date format yyyy-mm-dd

Question

The question is simple, how can I add days to a date in YYYY-MM-DD format?

For example, increment a date given in this format: "2013-02-11" to "2013-02-12"?

Do you mean you have a string `'2013-02-11'` and you want to increase the day field by a certain number? — Felix Kling, Feb 12 '13 at 21:53

Yes, it's not the same format but it's easy to apply the solution to yours. — Felix Kling, Feb 12 '13 at 21:58
This will be helpful: `new Date().toISOString().slice(0,10);` — Paul S., Feb 12 '13 at 21:59

Something like this :

    var date = new Date('2013-02-11');        
    /* Add nr of days*/
    date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1);

    alert(date.toString());

I hope it helps.

You can create your own format like this: var newDate = date.getFullYear() + "-" + (date.getMonth() + 1) + "-" + date.getDate(); SEE [DEMO](http://jsfiddle.net/ducwidget/AayZw/) – Dumitru Chirutac Feb 12 '13 at 23:43

function addDaysToCurrentDate(noofDays){
date      = new Date();
next_date = new Date(date.setDate(date.getDate() + noofDays));
var IncrementedDate = next_date.toISOString().slice(0, 10);
