Introduction:
This is
the small article but very important to return the day of the week. To find the
day of week JavaScript provides the Date object. Date object contain the many
methods. getDay() method is one of them.
getDay(): It returns the day of the week.
In the
following example we will use an array to hold the days of week.
Example
1:
<html>
<head>
<title>Day of Week</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var d=new
Date()
var weekday=new
Array(7)
weekday[0]="Sunday"
weekday[1]="Monday"
weekday[2]="Tuesday"
weekday[3]="Wednesday"
weekday[4]="Thursday"
weekday[5]="Friday"
weekday[6]="Saturday"
document.write("Today it is " +
weekday[d.getDay()])
</script>
</body>
</html>
Document.write
is a java script command. It is used for writing the output to a page.
Output:
Figure 1:
This figure shows the name of day.
Another
way to find the day and date simultaneously in JavaScript:
Example
2:
<html>
<head>
<title>Day of Week</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=olive><font color="navy">
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(Date())
</script></font>
</body>
</html>
In this
example we are using Date object directly so the output will be as following:
Figure 2:
This figure show the day and date.
