[Javascript] Add 10 working days.

[Andrew Dunn]

I made my own solution to the problem, here is the function:

		function addWorkingDays(myDate,days) { //myDate = starting
date, days = no. working days to add.
			var temp_date = new Date();
			var i = 0;
			var days_to_add = 0;
			while (i < (days)){
				temp_date = new Date(myDate.getTime() +
(days_to_add*24*60*60*1000));
				//0 = Sunday, 6 = Saturday, if the date not
equals a weekend day then increase by 1
				if ((temp_date.getDay() != 0) &&
(temp_date.getDay() != 6)){
					i+=1;
				}
				days_to_add += 1;
			}
			return new Date(myDate.getTime() +
days_to_add*24*60*60*1000);
		}

If I understood the problem correctly, you have to extract the weekends or 
ad the number of days that fallitno the weekend of this 10 day prolongation.

The number wary from 2 - 4 so you have to find out what day of the week the 
user entered the textbox so you can decide how many days to add. (hollyday 
date may also cause some additional probs)
this would be all for now. Cheers!
