JavaScript setUTCDate

JavaScript setUTCDate function is useful to set the Day of a Month on a given date as per the universal time. The syntax of the setUTCDate Date function is:

 Date.setUTCDate(Day_Number)

We are using this setUTCDate function to set the current day to the 30th per the universal time.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title> JS </title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1> Example </h1>
<script>
  var dt = Date();  
  document.write("Date and Time : " + dt + "<br/>");

  dt.setUTCDate (30);
  document.write("After : " + dt);
</script>
</body>
</html>
Example

Date and Time: Thu Nov 08 2018 12:40:51 GMT+0530 (Indian Standard Time)
After : Fri Nov 30 2018 12:40:51 GMT+0530 (Indian Standard Time)

In this JavaScript example, we set the day of a custom date to 31 according to universal time UTC.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title> JavaScriptSetUTCDateFunctions </title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1> JavaScriptsetUTCDateFunctionExample </h1>
<script>
  var dt = Date("January 1, 2017 10:11:19");
  document.write("Date and Time : " + dt + "<br/>");

  dt.setUTCDate (31);
  document.write("After setUTCDate () : " + dt);
</script>
</body>
</html>
