@FangSep 06.2005 — This is all you need:var jump=100; // number of days in the future
var inTheFuture=new Date();
inTheFuture.setDate(inTheFuture.getDate()+jump);
alert(inTheFuture);

Use the [URL=http://mozref.com/reference/objects/Date]date object[/URL] to retrieve and display a user friendly output.
