Code needed to calculate date 1 week, 16 days, 3 weeks and 6 weeks from today
Hi,
I am needing code for our intranet website that will calculate future dates (1 week, 16 days, 3 weeks and 6 weeks) from the current day's date. It doesn't have to be PHP, but since we use Wordpress, I thought that might work best. I am not a programmer, and do not know a thing about programming languages. Therefore, any and all help/suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

function getDateAfterDays ( noOfDays )
{
var noOfMilliseconds = noOfDays * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
var currentDateMilliseconds = new Date ().getTime();
var futureDate = new Date ( currentDateMilliseconds + noOfMilliseconds );
return futureDate;
}
