Syntax issues again.
Get the JavaScript 1.5 Core specification from the developer section
of the Netscape website, and look at the syntax of the Date object
constructor. (hint: when you have just numbers, you don't need the
quotes, and you will also have to make sure that you have the correct
order of the arguments).
You might try your syntax for the referenceDate in the Console.
Actually, your referenceDate is "undefined"...
Keep in mind, JavaScript does exactly what you tell it to do... EXACTLY....
Hope, this can help.
