in order to use:

date.addDays(5)

Open in new window

you need to include this function as well:

Date.prototype.addDays = function(days) {
    var date = new Date(this.valueOf());
    date.setDate(date.getDate() + days);
    return date;
}

Open in new window

what error you have received?

what library you're using for your picker class?
