JAVASCRIPT setUTCDay() METHOD

The setUTCDay() method in javascript sets the day in UTC (Universal Coordinated Time). Takes a required numeric value from 0 to 6 as its argument. 0 is for Sunday right through 6 for Saturday.

The general format is:

dateObject.setUTCDay(value);

If you want to return the full date and time with the setUTCDay() method, you will first have to create a new date object and then use the new date object with the setUTCDay() method.

Example:

<script type="text/javascript">

var dd=new Date(); // creates a new date object

dd.setUTCDay(2); // sets day to 2 of current week

document.write(dd); // outputs the date

</script>

The above will output:
